Now Registering: Austere Emergency Care (AEC) – UNC Chapel Hill | Dec 1–4, 2025

We’re heading back to Chapel Hill this December with one of our most in-demand civilian courses — Austere Emergency Care (AEC) — a 4-day, hands-on training event designed to prepare medical providers for when everything goes wrong and help isn’t coming.

Whether you’re a paramedic, flight medic, rural EMS provider, hospital based provider , AEC pushes you out of the classroom and into realistic, high-stress scenarios that test not just your medical skills, but your ability to lead, adapt, and survive in resource-limited environments.

This isn’t your typical CE wilderness med course. You’ll spend time learning proven techniques from subject matter experts with years of real-world experience, participate in immersive team-based exercises, and finish with a full-scale medical scenario that ties it all together.

FAWM credit eligible.
Hosted with the Carolina Medic Program and taught by instructors from Specialized Medical Standards and Ragged Edge Solutions, this is the gold standard in civilian austere medicine training.

Seats are limited. If you plan to attend, now’s the time to lock in your spot.

📍 Location: UNC Chapel Hill
📅 Dates: December 1–4, 2025

Hit the link in bio to buy a shirt. Or use that money for something “useful”, like socks. But we don’t sell socks, so buy a shirt.

Participants from all walks of life take away a more flexible mindset and a proven process for the early identification and treatment of patients at-risk of crashing.
