Expedition Medicine provides quality training for medics wishing to work in a remote environment. We can be the vehicle to allow you to become a valuable expedition, wilderness, high altitude, polar, diving, jungle or desert medicine practitioner. Our courses are suitable for expedition doctors, paramedics, nurses, wilderness EMTs, first responders and individuals providing medical cover in remote or inhospitable environments. As an organisation we are constantly approached with a variety of remote medicines post with a number of reputable organisations giving priority to Expedition Medicine course delegates.

Our UK training courses represent the gold standard in expedition medicine training. You will cover the essential skills required to be an invaluable member of an expedition team and work remotely in a number of different environments. The course is run over 4 days and has nearly 30 hours of lectures ranging from the academic and real life examples but there is a very strong emphasis on practical scenarios run in conjunction with our own local highly experienced faculty team and aided by local mountain rescue teams.

We also run a series of unique specific environment courses. These are predominantly practical and are designed to expose and train you in the essential skills required to function as a team medic in these remote and often harsh environments. These are run over 7 days and are currently in Namibia, Costa Rica, Maldives and Norway.
