Why are these so hard to find? I am looking to do the international flight medic thing and need this class. I was hoping to find one here in Michigan or northern Indiana.

If any one knows of a 2 week course coming up please let me know .

Cheers
Mike
 
Are you anywhere near Kellogg Community College in Battle Creek?
 
Contact Larry Wagner at Kellogg Community College (Battle Creek, MI (269)965-3931 x2396 or wagnerl@kellogg.edu). They have 2 courses scheduled. The first runs August 30-December 6, 2012 and the second runs September 10-December 10, 2012.


And if those won't work, here's a link to a list of the schools licensed to conduct CCEMTP training

From what I understand they recommended one year of paramedic experience.

Gotcha. Where I am working now, regular medics do CCT calls. I would be more comfortable having a little more training when dealing with vents and multiple drips.
 
It sucks but you may have to take two weeks off and just suck it up and take a drive.

I took my CCEMT-P in February and drove from the snowy white north, 1,000 miles south to Fort Worth and did it at CareFlite. I loved the course and the challenge it provided me professionally. The other nice thing is that you get to do some nice out-of-state networking. It also was nice to get out of 2 weeks of Minnesota winter... I exchanged my Mukluk boots for Cowboy boots.

Staying home is boring and overrated.
 
All you need to do is look at the website for the CCEMTP course.

http://ehs.umbc.edu/CE/CCEMT-P/

It provides the next course dates.

One year is recommended but it is a very simple overview of a few basic critical care concepts so even the new grads in some schools are not having any problem with it. You are not going to see most of what is taught in the class like an IABP or vent while working in the field and it is sometimes best to take it while the pharmacology and some of the A&P you learned in school is still fresh in your memory.
 
Thanks all looks like I will have to take 2 weeks and make a journey. Does this qualify as a vacation......um I bet not lol.

It would be to your advantage for tax purposes to consider it as a work related or cert expense.

The course is easy so except for the time in class, the rest will be yours to do whatever.
