An EMT-Paramedic training program is required to attain the highest level of emergency medical technician training. Such programs generally require a high school diploma for entry. A variety of training programs are available through community colleges, hospitals and fire departments.
Find the class or classes right for you. Some employers are looking for certified paramedics to fill EMT slots, but the Emergency Medical Responder (EMR) designation may be right for you if you're just looking for an entry level certification to test the waters. Just find someone who wants you to ride along. 2  Becoming a volunteer EMT at a fire station is a great use of your time. 3  Also consider how you can turn this into a job at a hospital, resident camp, nursing home, or factory.
