All participants will need to be dressed in clothing that can be stained and/or damaged, as the
program is heavily hands on, and moulage will be used to promote training authenticity.
Participants will need to be prepared to be outside approximately half of the training hours,
regardless of weather conditions unless hazardous (storms or extreme cold/heat).
Participants should bring whatever items they commonly carry on their persons on a daylong outing doing their favorite outdoor pursuit, as improvisational concepts are an important aspect of this course.
All program supplies and textbooks (which become property of the participants) are provided
by Ozark Safety and Rescue Educators (OSRE) as part of the program cost.
Successful completion of the entire program will result in a two year nationally accredited
certification.
