Howdy y'all, just a quick question. I'm currently looking into going to school to become a paramedic, and the school I am looking at offers 2 paramedic courses: Associate of Applied Science (Paramedic), and Emergency Medical Services (Paramedic Certification 2). I have been attempting to figure out the difference between the two, and so far the only difference I have found is that one costs more than the other. What are the pros/cons of getting the degree vs the certification, and vice versa? Ultimately, my goal is to go into the fire service once I finish school, so I just want to make the decision that will give me the most knowledge that I could use in the execution of my duties. Thank you for reading, and God bless!
