Who Accepts Survival Med Certifications?

This list is partial. It is not comprehensive and does not include every organization that accepts our certifications.

If you're using your certification to meet a requirement, it's always a good idea to confirm your organization's requirements.

Please reach out to Student Support via the Help bubble if you have a question about a specific organization.

We're always happy to talk with your employer about our training methodology and assessment.

Note: Federal and state agencies determine first aid training requirements for certain job classifications, which determines which certifications are accepted for employment.

However, they do not endorse or recommend any specific wilderness medicine school or program.
