LCCC

Lehigh Carbon Community College (LCCC) will hold Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) programs for those likely to respond to pre-hospital emergencies or those considering a medical career. Upon successful completion, the student will be eligible to test for the National Registry EMT (NREMT) credential. Minimum age of 16 is required.

Additional costs include text, NREMT testing fee, specialized equipment and clothing, which may vary depending on location of course.

Instruction and skill demonstrations, “hands-on” practical skill workshops and practical experience are presented by Pennsylvania State Certified EMT instructional teams. Prior to acceptance into the EMT program, individuals must provide a physician release form, proof of health insurance, criminal and child abuse clearances and reading and math placement test scores. It is highly recommended for anyone interested in either class to attend the free information session for the location desired.

EMT Basic classes are held at two off-campus locations: Jan. 15, Cetronia Ambulance Corp, 4300 Broadway, South Whitehall Township, and Jan. 24, Emergency Medicine Institute (EMI), 2100 Mack Boulevard, Allentown.

Free information sessions are at EMI on Dec. 29, Jan. 7 and Jan. 11.
