EMT Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What does an EMT-I do?
A: An Emergency Medical Technician Intermediate (EMT-I) is the entry-level certification for an Emergency Medical Services (EMS) provider. EMTs typically work on an ambulance responding to medical / trauma emergencies. EMTs can also work in other areas including private transportation, hospital emergency departments and fire / rescue agencies. There are no pre-requisite courses needed for the EMT program, but the student must be 18 years of age, have a high school diploma or GED prior to taking the Certification Exam and have up to date immunizations.

Q: What do you learn in class?
A: ERTSS training programs teach above and beyond the basic requirements for EMT. Our students learn not only how to treat patients experiencing medical and traumatic emergencies, but also why. Our additional Assessment and Hands-On Skill Lab sessions produce EMTs capable of acting with confidence in all manner of emergencies!

Q: What employment opportunities will I have as a new EMT?
A: A new EMT can apply for work in a variety of fields. Private ambulance companies and municipal EMS services employee entry level EMTs. Emergency Departments hire EMTs to act as Patient Care Technicians (PCTs). Many Fire Departments across the United States now make EMT certification a prerequisite for employment. New EMT Intermediates will typically earn from $10-$15 / hr. While ERTSS does not offer job placement per se, we can assist you in contacting local employers of EMS personnel. Professional emergency training is an attractive item to have on a resume for a job or school application in any field.

Q: How long is the course?
A: The next EMT program will be on Monday and Wednesday evenings from 6 pm to approximately 10:00 pm. Our programs also include some additional evening lab classes on Tuesday or Thursday. These classes start approximately 6 weeks into the program. You are required to attend one of these classes per week. The courses run approximately 10 months. Upon completion of the EMT-I class, students become eligible to take the National Registry EMT-I certification exam.
