Expedition & Wilderness Medicine training
Pushing boundaries to cultivate extraordinary teams & leaders
Expedition and wilderness medicine is more than just first aid training. Through scenario-based teaching we offer you the knowledge, skills and confidence to approach medical situations in remote locations. Our dedicated and highly experienced faculty will empower you to consider all aspects of being a medic in remote environments including leadership skills, human factors, and pre-departure planning. We are also highly specialised in medical consulting, and can offer remote or on-site medical cover for large expeditions.
Endeavour is passionate about making a difference. A portion of all our profits go towards funding work globally to counter health and gender inequality.
