Commonwealth University-Lock Haven to offer EMT training course

Commonwealth University Workforce Development will offer Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) training at CU-Lock Haven during the spring 2024 semester.

Based on concepts of active learning, student engagement and hybrid course design, the EMT flipped classroom serves as a course roadmap to provide a cooperative and successful learning experience.

The flipped classroom model dedicates class time to resolving misconceptions through collaborative problem-solving activities, elevating knowledge into application-level tasks and skills practice, and increasing engagement and confidence.

Students will interact with primary source content outside of the classroom to develop foundational knowledge. The EMT Flipped Classroom delivers primary source content in a variety of engaging formats, including an Emergency Care and Transportation of the Sick and Injured, 11th edition eBook and interactive and virtual mentor lectures.

This 16-week EMT training will be held Tuesday and Thursday evenings and select Saturdays from Jan. 18 through May 2.

The cost for the program is $1,250 per person and includes all materials, 10 patient contacts and one NREMT exam attempt. Funding may be available through your local EMS, CareerLink or your employer. Reserve a seat here: https://tinyurl.com/yb48xbsa.
