LCCC Holds EMT Classes in Lehigh County for Summer and Fall 2016

Lehigh Carbon Community College (LCCC) will hold an Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) program for individuals who are likely to respond to pre-hospital emergencies or those considering a medical career. Upon successful completion, the student will be eligible to test for the National Registry EMT credential. Minimum age of 16 is required.

Tuition is $1,000; additional costs include text, NREMT testing, specialized equipment and clothing.

Instruction and skill demonstrations, “hands-on” practical skill workshops and practical experience are presented by PA State Certified EMT instructional teams. Prior to acceptance into the EMT program, individuals must provide a physician release form, proof of health insurance, criminal and child abuse clearances and reading and math placement test scores. It is highly recommended for anyone interested in either class to attend the free information session for the location desired.

Information sessions and classes are held at two off campus locations, both in Allentown. Cetronia Ambulance Corp, located at 4300 Broadway, will hold its information session on July 25 at 7 p.m., with class held Aug. 28 through Feb. 21. An information session will be held Aug. 9 at 7 p.m. at the Emergency Medicine Institute (EMI), 2100 Mack Blvd., and class will be held Sept. 6 through Jan. 21.
