These give you a broad spectrum of knowledge and skills and equip you to tackle the majority of emergency situations. Introduction to Advanced level courses run from one to five days and require no prior experience. Extreme isolation and challenging location courses require advanced expertise before being attempted.
Bespoke Courses
If you have special requirements for an expedition, working place, location, or with specific combinations of skills, then these courses are tailored to you. We can marry survival with first aid training, additional wild food, navigation or emergency planning. If you have a challenge in mind and a series of criteria to be met we meet them.
