I love the equipment and the hands-on training we received!

The training has better helped me understand the EMS role within the Fire Department.

I love the fact that I can take this course while still in high school, and it set me up to start my career!

This has given me the ability to understand just what goes on in the back of an ambulance!

I enjoyed the hands on aspect of the EMT course, and how in depth the EMT course was compared to the EMR course I took.

I really enjoyed the instructors throughout my entire course. They were always available to help with any questions that I had.

I enjoyed the EMT Hybrid course I took as it fit my schedule, and all the bookwork was online.

I enjoyed the EMT class as it was not so rigid and formal like most post-high school technical education is. It had just the right amount of structure, but not so much that I felt like I was back in college, which made it a really fun and enjoyable learning atmosphere.

The clinical education was my favorite part. It wasn't overbearing, I loved getting to spend time in the ambulance while I was in class, and I enjoyed the time I got to spend with all of my preceptors.

The hybrid course was perfect for my schedule, and it was a great balance between in person - hands on skills, and online lecture.

My training set me up for success. The hands-on, clinical education taught me how to work as a crew member, and throughout the entire class I realized how important it is to work as a team, especially in a larger incident.

The availability of instructors, and the information, study guides, and real life situations they have encountered really helped the learning process.

Taking this class while still in high school has been one of the best decisions I have ever made.

My favorite part of the class was when Adria, Pat, Casey, and Brady were there. I enjoyed that Tyler incorporated individuals who actively worked on the ambulance as a crew member, and weren't necessarily all instructors. These EMT's provided a lot of guidance on how there are big differences in being in the classroom, and how things are actually done in the field.
