Overview
We’re seeking passionate and experienced individuals to join the Alpinistas Adventures team as a Wilderness Medicine Instructor.
Teach Wilderness First Aid (WFA) and potentially Wilderness First Responder (WFR) courses, empowering clients with essential safety skills. (A plus if you can teach Navigation too, but not required.)
Courses are co-ed and primarily take place in the San Francisco Bay Area, Reno-Tahoe region, with some offerings in Yosemite. Qualifications: Prior WFA/WFR or other relevant medical experience is required to become an instructor through our program, if not already an instructor.
This role would require only a 1x per month commitment over the course of 1-2 weekend days in:
Bay Area – flexible location
Reno-Tahoe
Yosemite
You do not need to be available to work in all three locations as we’re hiring multiple instructors. If you are available to work all three locations then great!
Please apply as we’re filling spots immediately.
Thank you,
Alpinistas Adventures
