Your book is considered essential!! It is next to water, shelter, and fire lol!

You made this experience so much better than the crash course that’s offered through my work. I know I’m more prepared and confident! Your book is considered essential!! It is next to water, shelter, and fire lol! Won’t go on any adventure without it. Thank you for taking the time and making all these resources available. Because of you, I’ll be able to confidently guide and make sure the clients on our trips are in good hands! I’ll be back in 2 years for my recertification!
– Tawny M.

The best WFA course ever.

This is the best WFA course I have ever taken. I have taken WFA 3 times in the last six years and this is by far the best. Jeff does not waste your time with war stories. He gets right to the point explaining each concept in a way that everyone can understand.
– David K.

I loved this course!

I truly loved this course so very much and would for sure take it again!
– Marlee S.

– Caleb J.

Excellent course

Again, I can not compliment you enough for your excellent material and your awesome personality.  You were a pleasure to meet, work with and learn from.   I was nervous but after a few minutes felt so comfortable and confident.    I will be purchasing your course for some of our staff who take our kids backpacking in the next few months.  Again, thank you for all you are doing! 
– Matt K.

Great course and textbook

The Wilderness First Aid Made Easy course has given me confidence that I can handle emergencies that may arise in the wilderness. While providing certification, in-person courses have left me feeling overwhelmed and anxious that I wouldn’t remember to do the right thing. Jeffrey Imel’s book, carefully guiding the Wilderness First Aid provider with checklists for dealing with a range of challenges, combines beautifully with his online presentations: I am equipped for any difficulties or crises in the great outdoors!
– Mary Ellen A.

This course is a game changer!

This course is a game-changer. Every first aid course I have taken involves reading a book, watching a PowerPoint during a long-winded lecture, taking lots of notes and then figuring out how to put it all together when I need to use the first aid training. The textbook using the flow diagrams makes a complex and multi-step subject easy to understand and remember. Your video presentations are to the point and didn’t waste my time. The book is going in my backpack and I downloaded the app to my phone. Thanks much for this course.
