You will also receive a WMTC Epinephrine certification card confirming that you have been taught how to treat anaphylaxis with injectable epinephrine; some states require an epinephrine certification to permit you to carry and use epinephrine for the emergency treatment of anaphylaxis. And, you will receive a WMTC Adult & Child/AED Wilderness CPR certification.
