what about New Jersey

I think you'll find that there are only a couple of programs in the entire nation that offer online EMS certification. I don't know of any in New Jersey.

what about New Jersey

I don't believe New Jersey offers any online.

New Jersey is such a congested state that any volunteer squad, transport, or paid agency run CEU, core 13, and certification classes almost monthly.

www.NJOEMSCERT.com you were supposed to create an account in EMT class. Do a search in the course catalog area: http://www.njoemscert.com/coursecatalog/index.cfm?&roomaction=catalog

I have to do core 13 again my place will not pay. they said we gave you the voucher and you sucked

If you don't mind me asking what squad did you run with?

You can PM me if you'd like.

well you might find one in a church, hospital, under a tree.
but im pretty sure emt class will be held in a classroom most of the time.

pmed you

Also, I was think about taking first responder but, than I was told Nj does not care about it and we would get in trouble if we used first responders than I going the emt course again using my own money in sept.

I asked if I could still ride they said this "If your not currently in school I would wait to ride until your back in school'

 

[Handsome Robb]

Alright so you were dropped from your previous program due to your inadequate practical skills if I understood the other thread correctly, how does an online course seem like a good option with little to no hands on scenarios?

Secondly, why would your squad fork out more money when you essentially wasted it originally?

 

[italk]

the state paid they just sign off saying I belong

 

[Handsome Robb]

Either way. You hurt their credibility, there's no reason for them to extend that opportunity again unless you demonstrate a change in attitude and work ethic.

Not everywhere.

New Jersey does have some rural areas where first responders are utilized. However, in some of the more urban areas they are. It really depends on the preference of the department/municipality.

how am I going to demstrate that to them when I not even allowed to go on call anymore tell I go back to school

Well simply put you, you have a variety of options:

Option #1
Resign from your current squad if you feel that your progression or reputation is limited. From there, join another rescue squad and take another EMT course while keeping in mind all the things that you've learned.

Option #2
Finish and enjoy high school. EMS will still be around after you graduate, trust me. After you graduate you can dedicate the majority of your time to studying and riding consistently.

Option #3
Go away to college and decide if you truly wanna go into EMS. If so, congratulations, but see what else it out there.

Nothing I listed really involves you actually going on calls. Attitude and work ethic are pretty broad categories with a lot of ways to demonstrate a positive change.

from the other thread the OP posted:

They did not pass me or test me. Instead they dropped me from the program because of my temper,Hard time remembering stuff when playing patient. I was only good on the books. I was not kicked out but, they said come back in Feb for first responder than try the emt program again

maybe your squad and EMT course instructors are doing the right thing? I know you probably don't want to hear this, but if they dropped you because of your temper, as well as a hard time remembering stuff, than maybe EMS is not for you. And no, going to an online EMT program isn't the answer, because you will still need to deal with people sooner or later.

I know sometimes the truth hurts. Maybe after you have grown up a bit, had some time to mature, and gotten that temper of yours under control, you should give EMS and being an EMT another chance.

I am not giving up! I wil do first responder pending than in sept I will do emt again
