Hey just found this forum and I think it's great. I was just wondering if anyone has an opinion on a good school to go to in the Phoenix area or is an online course a better/more affordable option, etc.

I'm looking into this with the ultimate goal of becoming a Firefighter in the future. Any help would greatly appreciated!
 
cool, cool, i was born and raised in tucson AZ for 18 years... i went to PIMA community college to get my EMT-B... but in phoenix there is mesa community college, phoenix college, and glendale community college. i just recently found out that phoenix college has a AAS in para-medicine... thats what im goin for when i get out of the navy. i do know that there is currently a freeze on the fire positions, but hopefully they will open up in the near future.

good luck, and enjoy AZ
 
Yea, I am about to go to GCC for my EMT-B... Starts August 10th, I can't wait! Im not sure where I should go for the paramedic course though.
 
I did my EMT through wizard education. I did my medic through DC Med Prep, which also has EMT basic courses but its more expensive than comm colleges.

I would say if I had to do it i would choose. Phoenix college, Paradise Valley CC or Glendale CC, but sometimes getting into them is harder so I would pay the extra money and do DC Med Prep. They have classes in Mesa or Avondale.
