MTN acceptance
Does not meet WMEC minimum hours

This course format documents 0 in-person hours. WMEC lists a minimum of 70 total hours and 45 in-person hours for WFR. This documented format does not meet MTN’s automatic WFR reciprocity requirements. If you have other qualifying WFR training, select that record or request its review. Otherwise, take a full WFR course.

Except for the NOLS formats covered by MTN’s confirmed two-way agreement, MTN accepting another provider’s training does not establish that provider’s acceptance of MTN training. Confirm directly with the receiving organization. Course reciprocity and instructor authorization are separate.
