I remember as a new EMT working on a 911 ambulance, I received no new provider training. I remember about 4 or 8 hours of policy, protocol and equipment training and perhaps 5 or 6 shifts of third riding. Everything else was just OTJ by my partner. I remember that new ALS providers were precepted longer than that.
