Description:
Outdoor Emergency Care is the National Ski Patrol's education standard for First Responders that are trained to respond in an outdoor, mountainous, winter or wilderness environment. The training applies equally to those patrolling in ski and mountain bike resorts, cat and heli-skiing guides, river rafting guides, Nordic skiers, rangers, hikers, rock climbers, and those adventuring in the backcountry. OEC Courses involve a mix of self-study and hands-on practice sessions that together typically take 120 hours to complete.
