Ready to transform your experience with the outdoors?

Learn the core skills of survival - shelter, water, fire, and food - in a format that allows you to participate at home and at your own pace - with the Essential Wilderness Survival Skills (EWSS) online course.

Become competent in taking care of your survival needs in the wilderness. See the outdoors with new eyes – such as which plants you can eat and what trees can be turned into a fire kit.

Come away with practical life-saving skills, a deeper relationship with nature, greater confidence, and resources to share with your family & friends for fun and in emergencies.

In this course you will:

Understand the survival mindset
Learn how to build natural shelter
Experience how to make fire from friction
Learn how to find and purify water
Understand how to safely forage for wild foods
Know how to better prevent and prepare for emergencies.

Throughout the course we guide you through each skill step-by-step with videos in each module and accompanying handout booklets. Core concepts are emphasized and reviewed, with options to explore additional related skills.

You can complete the EWSS in as short as a weekend (as a crash course), though most spread it out over a few weeks. Once you join, a login email is sent within 24 hours and you will have access the course materials for two years. There are no tests and no homework (other than suggested projects).
