Passed your class or the licensing exam?

Hopefully you're just struggling with what I am, which is that there aren't as many options as I was initially told...
I was just planning on working as on ER Tech while I continued with school (working towards med school) and my full time job so that I could maintain my license/skills but all the ER's near me now want CNA's or Paramedics or additional Phlebotomy certs. instead of EMT B's-
Your other options are still private ambulance, dispatch with very minimal additional training, hospital aide, Public ambulance as long as its not in cook county (me) or a very close suburb that requires you to be both a firefighter and an EMT or paramedic- unless that's what you want in which case Elgin is hiring

.Most classes now train you the basic skills and teach you how to pass your NREMT. After that you are on your own to find what comes next.

That's quite unfortunate.
