hi

hello, if your already an Emt-B you have one foot in the door. go talk to their EMs department so they can accept you in to their program. you take the first class intro to EMS and then you have to take 2-6 all together if you want and lastly 7-12 I believe, which is externship. also if you haven't taken any General ed classes then that will stall you somewhat. if have then you are basically in the door.

I attend Mt. sac.

I know when I was in the Army we had ACTC think it was called, they have career councilors there that can help you get lined up with what you are wanting to do in the real world. ACTC was Army/Civilian Transition Center if memory serves me right from almost 20 years ago...lol<_<

Contact the school you are aiming for and talk to them. They pay counselors to be there to direct students etc.
