Well I actually know somebody in the 500s that got called for the Jan 26th class

Ok so I'm going to the January 26th class which is going right into EMD there's no EMS academy for that class they said within a year and a half will go to the EMS academy.... Your saying I'm only gonna be training for 2 months initially ?

How long is the EMD training some I heard 3 months and I heard 6 months.... If it's 6 months that means the people in the Jan 12th class are going to be training for 9 months ??? (A extra 3 because they start with the EMS academy)

I was hoping to go into Fire I think it's 2 years on the job then your eligible to take the Promo test so maybe I'll just stick with EMD for two years depending on how I like it... But im sure you have to keep your EMT certification while being a EMD right ?

Oh ok cool I'm going in as a EMD and of course like mostly everyone else this was a complete suprise to me and wanted to be on the street, just hope its not too bad. EMD training is out of metro tech right ? I don't remember the guy on the phone saying. P.S I elected to take the January 26th class

Does anybody know what it's like being a EMD.... Is it like being a prisoner for 8 hours ? ....are they strict with things like they don't want you on your cell phone stuff like that.... And is there a graduation ceremony for EMD's ?
