Trip Description

PLEASE NOTE: This course is limited to a maximum of 11 participants.

Course Fee: BCMC Members: $200  (non-member rate: $257.25).

The Introductory Wilderness First Aid course is a dedicated BCMC course offered through the Canada West Mountain School -- this course is offered to BCMC Members outside of the normal CWMS schedule. The course is taught by instructors who are active outdoor enthusiasts and consists of 2 full weekend days of theory and real-life simulations in an outdoor environment. It's a must for anyone active in the outdoor.

Logistics:

  1. Saturday Nov 2nd & Sunday Nov 3rd - 8am to 5pm both weekend days at CWMS (47 West Broadway, Vancouver). Please arrive around 07:45 on Saturday morning.
  2. This specialized course is designed for people who work or play outdoors; it is designed for those who enjoy the outdoors, learning emergency preparedness, and making the right decisions to ensure their own safety and that of other.
  3. Prior to the course start date, you will receive an email with a form for you to fill-out and bring to the course on Saturday morning. 

The course goes rain or shine so please dress appropriately and bring your lunch for both weekend days.

On-line Registration process: once you register online, your name is automatically placed on the "Request List" for the organizer to process. Once the Organizer approves your registration, your name is placed on the "Waiting List" until your payment has been received either by cheque or PayPal/Credit Card (see below).  After payment has been received, your name will be placed on the "Confirmed List" and a confirmation email will be sent.  Note that course registration priority is on a first-come-first-served basis and your participation is NOT guaranteed until you have paid and your name is on the "Confirmed List"... so it's important that you pay the course fee ASAP after being notified that you are on the "Waiting List".
