What We Do
We sell classes and education. But we provide the knowledge and skills necessary to confidently make life-saving decisions.
Who Are We?
Go In The Know is owned by three paramedics and a dedicated content developer. The bulk of our experience has occurred in a high-volume urban setting that is internationally renowned for its science-based approach to prehospital medicine (Seattle / King County). We also have extensive rural and wilderness experience: ranging from backcountry operations to wildland firefighting to marine rescue to wilderness helicopter response.
