On the Live Ready Online Basic Survival Skills Course

You'll learn how to meet your fundamental survival needs in the wilderness. Every tutorial is structured to provide you with the best learning experience. The instruction in these tutorials has been included in the training for specialised task force personnel in order to prepare them for deployment, however the content is presented at a level which kids have benefitted from on our wilderness courses.

Remember to practice each skill at home before moving on to the next tutorial. Master the skills before you need them in the wilderness.
