Train NEK offers SOLO-certifying Rural and Backcountry Medicine courses including Wilderness First Aid, Wilderness First Responder, First Aid and CPR – helping outdoor professionals and rural enthusiasts alike more fully enjoy Vermont’s Northeast Kingdom (the “NEK”) outdoors. You can take courses at our outdoor classroom here in Peacham, or we can come to you.
At Train NEK, we want as many people as possible to feel empowered and knowledgeable in responding to illness and injury in their rural and outdoor communities. All are welcome here. We offer no-cost, drop-in CPR refresher sessions at area farmer’s markets and have always let Northeast Kingdom residents audit our courses for free.
We value the creativity that stems from collaboration, empathy and inclusion, and the good times that come from kicking back from screens. We love the Northeast Kingdom because it’s full of opportunities to do just that, through community events, outdoor vistas, artistic venues, microbreweries, bookstores, mountain bike trails, and so much more.
Train NEK was founded by Andrea Kane, Lead SOLO Instructor since 1999, to provide engaging instruction, personalized attention, and local convenience while promoting responsible use of our natural resources and collaborating with others in and around the NEK’s outdoor industry.
