Hey all I am doing a paper and was trying to find out the state mandated hours for paramedic school. I tried looking at the website but didn't have very much luck. Was looking for a breakdown of the didactic, clinical, and field internship hours. Any help appriciated thanks.

might I direct your attention to the national registry website, since that is the testing agency which sets the mandatory course hours.

I think you'll find that CO requires all programs to be CAAHEP accredited and they use their requirements for training hours, they also use NREMT standards. Actually, CO requires that people are NREMT if they want a state cert.
For better or for worse CO keeps it fairly simple.
CAAHEP standards are here: http://www.caahep.org/documents/file/For-Program-Directors/EMSP Final April 2005.pdf
