I have taken WIFA several times as part of AMC Spring Volunteer Training. It's an extra day but the cost is minimal, something like $50.

The class is usually taught by AMC staff member or a SOLO instructor and includes CPR cert.

It's a very cost effective way to get certified. Of course the Club hopes you will help guide guests once you are done.
