I was curious about some of the “accelerated” paramedic programs throughout the nation and came across this little gem located in Nebraska. A 12 WEEK!!! accelerated paramedic program at McCook community college in Nebraska. From what I hear these programs are looked down upon in the EMS community. From my research however the 12 weeks only includes the didactic portion of the program and the 400+ hours of field and clinical experience is to follow. It seems interesting that a school can teach a student paramedicine in 12 weeks. The school has a “high success rate” as it claims.
