The WFR Remote Extension will no longer be offered as a WFR Recert after July 1, 2021.
The WFR Remote Extension course was designed to support current WFR cert holders during a period when in-person courses were largely not an option.  As we have been able to return to in-person courses, the WFR Remote Extension course will be discontinued as an offering after July 1, 2021.  If your certification is expiring and an in-person course is not available or is not an option for you, please contact the LWM office for options.
Picture
Maintaining your WFR certification is important; we also know that it is currently a challenge to find and commit to taking an in-person course at this time.

Until we are able to offer in-person classes more consistently, LWM is offering an online course that will provide a one year certification extension for people who are eligible to take an LWM WFR Recertification course
