About
The Occupational Endorsement in Advanced Emergency Medical Technician (AEMT) is designed to prepare you to provide basic and limited advanced emergency medical care and transportation for critical and emergent patients who access the emergency medical system. The program includes both EMT-Basic and Advanced EMT coursework that will prepare you for both national and State of Alaska basic and advanced EMT certification.
Upon completion of the program you will learn how to function as part of a comprehensive EMS response, under medical oversight and develop the knowledge and skills required to provide patient care and transportation using the basic and advanced equipment typically found on an ambulance.
The program can be used as a stepping stone to the paramedicine associate degree for students interested in continuing to advance their knowledge through additional education.
