I just received an offer from Peggy Quinn for EMD,
Peggy Quinn will be making offers this week for EMD that starts on January 12th (All EMD). This class will start with EMT at Fort Totten, then go straight into the EMD training. The January 26th (All EMD). This class will start with EMD training, then go work at EMD, then within 2 years will go to Fort Totten and do EMT.
All EMD will require a two year commitment. 6 months training, and 1.5 to 2 years working EMD. After that time frame you may elect to stay in EMD or pick which other division you would like to work in. EMD comes with an additional $1,000 per year and 10 college credits (for the training). They are recommending EMD to people interested in the promotional path to fire. They said they are doing this for several reasons; less chance of being injured, less disciplinary issues/complaints from the public, and easier to stay on a consistent fitness regimen.
The January 12th class is almost full (per Peggy Quinn today). They will then continue calling to fill the January 26th and February 9th class. I am waiting for my FDNY emails, one is a congratulation letter, other is a instructional letter.
Good luck all!
