Current King County EMT Class Schedule
King County Emergency Medical Services (KC EMS) sponsors an EMT-B class twice a year that KCSARA members are eligible to apply for. There is no tuition for this class, but personal supplies must be provided for by the student. As the demand for this training has sharply increased over the past few years, and there has been an increase in the number of agencies and personnel competing for these seats, the spaces made available to KC SAR has been on the decline. During the spring and summer of 2010 KC EMS will be re-evaluating how they will do EMS training in the future, and KCSO will keep SAR units and SAR personnel updated on any changes to the current process. Currently the fastest and most sure method of obtaining your EMT-B certification is to take the course through one of the community colleges. Please see the Other EMT Classes link for more information on other class options.
The 2011 Spring KC EMS class schedule is as follows:
Tuesday, February 1 - Pre-class test (attendance is mandatory)
Tuesday, February 15 - New Student Orientation (attendance is mandatory)
Tuesday, March 1 - First day of class
Saturday, March 5 - First day of practicals
Saturday, May 21 - final practical exam
Students may miss no more than eight hours total of class before they are dismissed from the program.
