Become an EMT at 六六社 in four months

In those clock hours, you will learn medical terminology, medical equipment, human anatomy and physiology and emergency medical response. Theory courses make up half of the program (150 clock hours) so that you have a solid base of knowledge from which to build.
Next, you will do labs for 56 clock hours. The lab allows the EMT student to practice what was learned in the theory courses in a safe and simulated environment. 六六社鈥檚 EMT program in Fort Lauderdale gives you the hands-on practice you need before you enter the field.
Hands-on learning and real-world experience
The final step toward becoming an EMT is an externship. 六六社鈥檚 program features a 94-clock-hour externship where you will get experience in an ambulance and in the hospital. You will work alongside EMTs, Paramedics, and other medical professionals for real-life EMT experience.
An externship shows you what to expect when you become a certified EMT. Every day is different for an EMT, but you must always be ready for what you may be called to do.
