Paramedic Program
General Information

The EMT-Basic certificate program is now full for the Spring (January-April) semester, district wide.   To be placed on the Spring semester waiting list for the Lee, Collier, and Charlotte campuses, you may still turn in a completed EMT-Basic application on the days/times specified on the application.   

The EMT-Basic certificate will hold a summer 2009 class at the Lee campus. Please check this web site for further details.

The Paramedic certificate program is still accepting completed applications for the Spring semester at the Charlotte campus.  All other Paramedic certificate programs are closed for Spring.

The Paramedic Certificate Program is designed to prepare the student to become a competent entry-level paramedic in the field of emergency medicine. Upon successful completion of the Paramedic Program, the Department of EMS will issue to the student the necessary paperwork required to submit to HRS/EMS to apply for the Florida State Paramedic Certification examination.
During the Paramedic Program, students will be required to complete a two (2) week rotation in an operating room of a local hospital. This rotation is in addition to scheduled class laboratory hours. Purchase of an EMS uniform shirt and professional liability insurance are required. Students must provide transportation to and from the clinical sites as required.

The EMS Technology Program is accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Allied Health Education Programs (CAAHEP) in conjunction with the Committee on Accreditation of Educational Programs for the Emergency Medical Services Professions (CoAEMSP).
