The Emergency Medical Services (EMS) Technology program provides the opportunity to earn a certificate and/or an associate in applied science degree to individuals who work with ambulance services, rescue squads, fire services and other first responder organizations. The program augments a nationally recognized technical core with general education courses and is typically taken on a part-time basis over three to four years due to the length of AEMT (6 months) and Paramedic licensure classes (9 months).
