WE PARTNER WITH SOME OF THE BEST EDUCATORS AND PROFESSIONALS IN THE FIELD
"Working with Jess has been an absolute joy and a highly rewarding experience professionally. Her infectious positivity, unwavering motivation, and genuine kindness creates an uplifting atmosphere for students. Her empathetic and caring nature makes her an incredible teammate, coach and instructor. As the Founder of The Survival University in Colorado, it has been a joy to partner and collaborate for outdoor education courses together including wilderness survival, outdoor adventure backpacking and executive leadership training"
~ Jason Marsteiner | The Survival University
We had an exceptional experience working with Jess and Wildkind Outdoors. The training exceeded our expectations. Jess's professionalism was evident in every interaction- through clear communication, timely responses, and attention to detail. Jess consistently displayed a high level of expertise, clearly demonstrating a deep knowledge of bushcraft and survival readiness. What really set Wildkind apart was Jess's ability to tailor solutions to meet our training needs. She took time to align our training goals and deliver an excellent product. Jess approaches training with an inspired passion and enthusiasm that fosters an environment that is fun, relaxing, and conducive to learning. I highly recommend Wildkind to anyone wanting to build or enhance their survival skills!

"I have enjoyed working with Jess and Wildkind Academy. Jess’ energy and enthusiasm behind her mission are uplifting and contagious. Our first partnership was our shellfish Foraging course. She took great care to make sure all the participants were in good hands. I appreciate her drive, attention to detail, and follow-through and look forward to working together on more of our hunting and gathering courses."
~ Bruce McGlenn | Human Nature Hunting
Cancellations, Refunds, Transfer of Courses/Events:
Since our courses require planning, materials, location fees, guest instructor fees, travel and spots are limited, we do not offer refunds unless you can communicate with us at least 30 days in advance, prior to the event/course you purchased. If cancellation is at least 30 days prior to the course start date 97% of course cost is refunded. If cancellation is within 14 to 30 days prior to course start date 75% of course cost is refunded. If cancellation is within 14 days of course start date 50% of course cost will be refunded. If a course or event does not reach the minimum class size requirements we might need to cancel a course, if so we will provide a full refund or offer an alternative course date.
You are welcome to find someone else to attend on your behalf who can purchase the course directly from you if you are within the 30 days. As an alternative to cancelling, you may transfer funds as a credit towards other classes for up to 1 year by calling or emailing and asking to transfer the money you paid towards another scheduled course/event. It is not guaranteed that the original purchased class type will be available and by rescheduling, you accept this risk.
Refund or cancellation requests the day before a scheduled course will forfeit the purchase of your class unless you can find someone to take your spot. Contact us to inquire about a credit for a future course/event and this would be at the discretion of Wildkind Outdoors. No-shows forfeit their entire class amount and no refund or credit will be issued unless a valid reason is given, again at the discretion of Wildkind Outdoors. Failure to show up at a course/event or leaving early from a course/event will not warrant a refund or credit.
On a rare occasion due to circumstances beyond the control of Wildkind Outdoors, it may be necessary for a course or event to be canceled. If an event/course is cancelled or rescheduled, a full refund will be offered along with the opportunity of a credit for a future event (to be used within 1 year)
