Emergency Medical Technician-Basic, Short-Term Certificate
This program is designed for individuals interested in pursuing a career as an Emergency Medical Technician. It prepares students for entry level positions with ambulance and Emergency Medical Services (EMS). Because Ohio certification as an EMT or Paramedic is a component for staffing fire departments, it is also important for anyone pursuing a career as a firefighter. Students who successfully complete this program are eligible to take the National Registry of EMT examination. Successful completion of this examination is necessary for State of Ohio EMT certification. A criminal background check must be completed through a program approved source prior to participation in directed practice.
