You must be kidding.

In 1990 when I did my EMT-B, it was 6 weeks, 9-4, 10 hours clinical in ER, 10 hours ride-along.
And when I hit the street, I there was still a pretty big learning curve.

Have the streets gotten simpler?

Not by a long shot!

However the DOT curriculum for EMT-B has not changed since 1994. The course requires a minimum of 111 hours of classroom and skills instruction and 10 hours of Clinical/Field rotations for a total of 121 hours of training.

The difference being we train from 9am- 6pm for 14 days....Monday through Friday in the classroom all day Sat & Sun on the street or ER this process takes 3 weeks but is 14 days of classroom training. Look at the dates 3/7-3/25.

P.S I have a 92% first time pass rate.

PSS. Getting your EMT cert allows you to just start learning about Med.
