– Technical Certificate

Why choose our EMT program?
In the unfortunate event of an emergency, people can find comfort in knowing that help is on the way.  It is the emergency medical technician that is often the first line of defense – the first medical professional a person would see.  They play a very important part in the pre-hospital treatment and can work in a variety of locations, such as Emergency Medical Service (EMS), fire departments or special response teams.  Although the thought of saving lives can be very exciting, it can also be very demanding.  That’s why we’ve designed a program that will teach you not just the technical skills you will need, but will prepare you to handle any challenge that comes your way.

 

What will I learn?
This program is a collaborative effort between the Division of Corporate Education at Lancaster General College, and the Lancaster EMS.  Experienced EMT providers will lead your class through lectures, skill sessions and clinical field training.  Once you have successfully completed the program, you will be eligible to take the certification exam, including certifications for emergency vehicle operations, assisting advanced life support and hazardous materials.
