Check out the National Outdoor Leadership School (www.nols.edu) catalog, look under Wilderness Medical Assoc. They frequently offer various Wilderness First Aid courses in the Bay Area.

I don't live in CA, but you might ask the folks at REI about such classes, or the local chapter of the Sierra Club.  The Red Cross has first aid classes. 



Good luck.

  I live in Oakland CA and I would like to take my 14 year old son next 
spring. One of the things I would like to do before we go is to take a map 
reading class and first aid wilderness or other. Can anyone suggest some 
places in the Oakland area to take these classes.
