The Medical Center Campus Emergency Medical Technician Certificate Program is a college credit certificate that is a 1 - semester course of study requiring 11 credits. Before entry into the Emergency Medical Technician Certificate Program, students must have completed training as a First Responder. Completion of First Responder does not guarantee admission to the program.

The Emergency Medical Technician Program provides learning experiences that enable the student to acquire and assimilate the necessary technical competencies to function effectively as a supportive health care provider in the pre-hospital environment. In keeping with its mission and goals, and in compliance with Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Medical Center Campus promotes an environment of respect and support for persons with disabilities and will make reasonable accommodations. Please see the ADA Standards listed for this program.

If students must work for financial support, the program strongly recommends a limit of 20 hours of employment per week. Students should also consider family responsibilities before committing to a any medically related program.

To facilitate the clinical portion of the program, students are assigned to a clinical facility within Miami Dade County . Students are responsible for their own transportation to the campus and to various agencies in the community to which they are assigned for clinical experiences.
