This course will be held at the Taft Nicholson Environmental Humanities Center in Lakeview, MT in the spectacular Centennial Valley. The Upper Lake Campground maintained by the Red Rock Lakes National Wildlife Refuge is ~4mi from the course site. Learn more about the campground here. Participants should be prepared to camp with all of the food they need for the course. (Any hotels, restaurants, and grocery stores are a ~1.5h drive from the course site.) The campground and course site are in grizzly bear country necessitating bear-safe food storage (provided at campground) and practices. Roads to the area are dirt and can be rough in spots. They are typically passable by any vehicle in June but can become very muddy and potentially impassable with significant rain. Anyone traveling to the site should be prepared with a full tank of gas, food and clothing appropriate for the conditions. Reach out with questions!

We highly recommend that anyone registering for a course consider purchasing trip insurance in the event that illness or other covered circumstances impact your participation in the course. There are no refunds once you register and pay for a course. ​
Hybrid WFA
WFA certification requires completion of both the Online Module AND the In-person Session.
Hybrid courses offer you options for how you register and move through a course. Most people register for both Online and In-person components of a hybrid course at the same time by finding an In-person Session listed below. Sometimes, it makes sense to register for the WFA Online Module before you select a practical In-person Session.

Registering for the Online Module only

​If you want to begin the Online Module without registering for the In-person session, you may register for the Online Module only. Then when you find a practical In-person Session that works for you, you may register for it by contacting our office. Both the Online Module and the In-person Session must be completed within one year of each other.

Here are a few reasons why you might register for the Online Module now and later register for an In-person Session:
  • You'd like to get started on the Online Module and there are not currently any In-person Sessions that fit your schedule.
  • You have time to complete the Online Module now, and may not have time later. 
  • You are interested in the education contained in the Online Module and don't need WFA Certification. 
​For WFA certification: if you register for Online Module now, you will need to register and complete In-person Session within one year.

WFA Online Module Tuition: $140
