Welcome to WayPoint Survival Miigwetch for showing an interest in our school.
There was a time, just a few generations ago, when things were simpler. Food was grown locally. Resources were managed. People understood the cycle of things.
Today, our hyper-technological societies have produced a world in which respect for the earth and resource management are often afterthoughts. We may have gained a sense of power and control but, in the process, we've lost a sacred connection with the natural world, the land.
We've forgotten how interconnected everything is and living without this awareness we believe, both unhealthy and unsustainable.
We at WayPoint Survival believe there is power in the "old ways" of walking lightly through the wilderness and we believe that power is accessible to everyone. Through our training we hope to reconnect you with it, empowering you with confidence and skill.
Some of the skills we teach come from our First Nations traditions, teachings and culture. Culture that sought harmony with our environment to preserve a sacred wisdom. As a result, WayPoint students experience a closeness with the land. We call this land based healing, it's inhabitants and resources teach sustainability and respect. The Seven Grandfather Teachings of our people are incorporated within our courses.
There is power beauty and balance in the ancient paths we preserve and we sincerely invite you to join us on this path. We hope you'll come to reconnect both with the land and your spirit.
Finally, we are a people oriented school. Our students invest and rely on our Instructors training, operational experience and skills we bring to each course, our commitment in return is our instructors invest back in you, the student, ensuring that your training and skills are sound. Computers and electronics break, batteries fail, but the human computer, "your brain" and your skill set will always prevail.
Our programs are cutting edge in design, delivery, instruction and outcomes. Our Tracking and Survival programs are proven and work. We apply sound, innovative and proven methods of instruction in our training that challenge our students to reach their full human potential. Our Instructor's training, skill and lessons learned combined with their operational experience is passed on to you, giving you the "Human Advantage".
Again Miigwetch for choosing WayPoint Survival.
I have taken a multitude of different courses with different instructors and companies in survival and tracking over the years. The WayPoint Survival Team is top notch and will push you to increase your abilities and skills regardless of your skill level. The instructors are great and have clearly spent years developing and innovating their craft and have the innate ability to relay their skills in an easy, enjoyable and fun way to learn the curriculum of their courses. I would highly recommend that anyone wanting to take a course with WayPoint Survival, do so. You will not be disappointed.

I just completed the Winter Skills Survival Course. WayPoint Survival training is some of the best if not the best training you can receive in Survival and Combat Tracking. The Instructors are top notch, upper crust when it comes to training and experience. I've trained with WayPoint on their other courses and I'm inspired every time. The owner is truly passionate about his Company, the training it provides, and everyone that is involved with his training. His main focus is making sure his students will leave the course with the skills needed to survive in any austere or hostile environment. He always has the time to take a phone call and answer my questions or point me in the right direction. The dedication this man has is beyond reproach. I've personally experienced his dedication, motivation, and determination and know he always puts his best effort into his company, students and his team. Thank you, well done again!

I recently took WayPoint Survival's Austere Environment Medicine Course. This is an excellent comprehensive course. Even after being a military medic with multiple deployments and 8 years as a remote/austere emergency medicine technician and SAR volunteer, I learned about new evidence for certain interventions as well as more efficient ways to implement interventions from this course.
The Instructors at WayPoint Survival are direct with relevant information and real-world experience. What they teach is evidence-based medicine. You learn the science, how/why, and realistic application of medicine in a hostile setting. Highly recommend this course!

Team WayPoint Survival: Recently I purchased fifteen of your Survival Kits for the employees in my Company. I received the equipment right on time and exactly how I custom ordered them. You spent your time giving your input and advice with my program manager, myself and employees (end user) on the procurement of this equipment. The packages are comprehensive and well put together. You took additional time to go over in detail the kits and the contents to my staff and made sure everyone had a thorough understanding of each component. I would highly recommend WayPoint Survival to any anyone requiring training or equipment when working in austere enviroments. Thanks again!
