The EMT course at M-Tech has been very fulfilling. The instructors are knowledgeable and friendly. They are so willing to answer your questions and keep lecture fun and informative. I feel very prepared to enter the EMS field.
Jade Ranagan
The EMT class at MTECH is one of the best courses I have ever taken. I love the teaching dynamic that combines real world EMS experience along with the expertise to prepare us to pass the NREMT exam. I look forward to taking the Advances course next year!
