Awesome thanks for the info!

A decent pair of regular shoes cost about $50 anyways. So in the long run I'd be spending even more on a pair of shoes now that I probably won't be wearing again than on a pair of boots/shoes I'd actually be needing to wear later. Do you recommend any specific brand or a shoe vs boot?

That is what I was thinking. The class only says "black shoes" no other indication of what to get. I've been looking online to see what EMTs actually wear and a lot of them wear boots. Is there a certain brand that is better over others? I'd rather spend more now than having to buy regular shoes...

I will be starting an EMT class in a couple months and something on their "supplies" we need to buy just says black shoes. I don't want to get just regular gym shoes if I will have to get other shoes later. Is it best to invest in better shoes right away than having to buy another pair later...

Awesome thank you, if you don’t mind me asking, how much was Chandler-Gilbert? Also do you pick classes like a normal college course schedule? I will be doing this while working a full time mon-fri job just so there are classes available at times I can go.

Thank you, for the first time pass factor does that have anything to do with how easy or hard the course is in comparison to another one? More so to see how much it’ll prepare for the actual job outside of a classroom and not that I’m looking for an easier course. Or is the pass rate on how well...

Hello everyone! I wanted to get some input on how you trained to become an EMT and what your thoughts are on going to a specialty acaedemy like Arizona Academy of Emergency Services versus a community college that offers EMT courses? I live in Arizona and have found at least 5 different places...
