1) WFA and CPR Training and Certification from AERIE Backcountry Medicine

2) Plant identification skills

3) GPS and Orienteering practice

4) Basecamp set up skills

5) SCA Driver Training

6) Work Skills (Body Mechanics, Tool Use-Maintenance)

7) Leave No Trace Awareness Workshop and LNT Training Course
