Emergency Medical Technician Certificate

The eight-week Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) continuing education course focuses on the fundamentals of emergency medical assistance in out-of-hospital, critical situations, such as motor vehicle accidents. The Emergency Medical Technician Core Course combined with hands-on clinical work will train students to assess emergencies, provide immediate care, and transport patients to the hospital. Successful completion will allow the student to take the NREMT-B exam and apply for their state EMT card. California State Certification as an EMT is one of the requirements to apply to a paramedic program in the state. Successful completion of this course also results in National Certification eligibility.
