Wilderness Survival Course

Courses range from four to fourteen days focusing on individual survival and movement. Equipment is restricted to the basic essentials or first-line gear. Classes review both the psychological and physical necessities of human survival. Attendees will be required to construct shelters, start primitive fires, locate water and food sources, perform land and celestial navigation, and communicate and move without detection. Courses environments include swamp/jungle, cold weather/winter, woodland/mountain and desert. Although attendees are continually monitored it should be understood this program is both physically and mentally demanding and attendees will be required to move independently throughout the field exercise phase.

Background: This course was specifically developed to meet the challenges faced by a continual and growing terrorist threat.

Course length and content can be adjusted to meet unit specific needs. Clients required meeting NFPA and/or OSHA standards have a minimum amount of instruction hours regardless of experience level.
