First Responder participant 2023
Exceeded my expectations! By far one of the best first aid programs I have been expsoed to in my twnety year career. The Explora Medicine instructors unpacked so much useful content to apply to any first aid scene and I have left with a renewed confidence in my ability to respond.

First Responder participant 2021
People often laugh about first aid on a drop zone, but I found this course was extraordinarily helpful in learning how to manage a major trauma at our home drop zone. The instructor was an experienced paramedic and an experienced skydiver who understood the environment and gave us the confidence to manage a patient in the field. High recommend for any skydivers to attend this one!
