Q: Can I become an EMT if I have a criminal conviction?

It depends on the nature of the conviction. The National Registry of EMTs (NREMT) may deny certification for certain criminal convictions, especially felonies or crimes involving violence, abuse, theft, or weapons. However, each case is reviewed individually, considering factors like the severity of the crime, time elapsed, and rehabilitation efforts. Some states may have additional restrictions. If you have a conviction, you should check with both NREMT and your state EMS authority to determine eligibility. For more information review the NREMT Criminal Conviction policy or reach out to your local EMS Authority. For EMTs in Clark County, NV, call the Southern Nevada Health District at 702-759-1050. For EMTs outside of Clark County, call the State of Nevada EMS Office at 775-687-7590.

We will also use your expertise during the class to lead those that do not have as much experience. This course has been approved for CME credit. Please ask your instructor for more information.

Q: I am having trouble with a certain skill. How many times can I come to that specific module?

You can attend each module as many times as you want! If you struggle with a certain skill or module you can attend that module as many times as you need in order to be comfortable. Our goal is to make you succeed in becoming an EMT.

Q: How Much Is The EMT Modular Program?

The Modular EMT Program will cost $1999.00. For those who prefer a more flexible payment structure, the program also offers an installment plan costing $2,300.00 with a $550.00 deposit that is required to enter into the program. This plan allows students to spread the cost of tuition over several payments, which can ease financial pressure and make the investment in their future more manageable. Both options provide valuable training, but the installment plan includes an additional fee to accommodate the extended payment arrangement. The installment plan is structured to span a period of four months , allowing for manageable, scheduled payments throughout the duration of the plan. We offer weekly, biweekly, and monthly payment plans. PAYMENT OPTIONS: Upfront Price: $1999.00 Installment Payment Plan: $2300.00 Deposit: $550.00 $125.00 / weekly x 14 $250.00 / bi-weekly x 7 $437.50 / monthly x 4
