Hello everyone! My name is Michael. I currently live in a rural part of Solano County California near the Sacramento County line. I've applied to our local volunteer fire department and passed their Physical Agility test. Currently waiting on the next step in the process. I've looked up a few EMT programs at local community collages within half hours drive, because I am also interested just as much in EMS as Firefighting, and the EMT is pretty much required everywhere I thought I might get a jump start.
Los Medanos College has what appears to be a pretty decent EMT program, and they offer two formats starting June 2, 2014. Both formats are 3 days a week but one class is 8 hours a day as opposed to 4. So the 8 hour a day class runs 2 months as opposed to 4 months the other way around. Does anyone have any suggestions? Either format better than the other? I am personally leaning towards the 8 hour a day/2 month format, because I also work a full time job and would be rearranging my schedule to take the class.
Does anyone have any first hand info on LMC's program? Thanks again.
