Become a Sought-After Paramedic by Learning from the Best

If you're going to be in the business of saving lives, it makes sense to learn from the best. Gwinnett Tech's programs not only train you for the future - but they do it with the highest standards!

Gwinnett Tech's EMT-Paramedic program is the only program in Georgia to be accredited by the Committee on Accreditation of Allied Health Education Programs (CAAHEP).

With baby boomers aging and the size of the general population and urbanization increasing, the need for emergency medical services will increase, thus, so will the need for EMTs and paramedics.

It is also expected that personnel in this field with advanced certifications, like Gwinnett Tech's EMT-Paramedic degree, will have access to the best job prospects as clients and patients demand higher levels of care prior to arriving at the hospital.

Training in the EMT-paramedic program prepares students for careers with emergency medical services, hospital emergency departments, aeromedical transport, armed forces, industry, urgent care clinics, physicians' offices and local fire and police services.

The college's degree program can be completed in eight quarters and prepares graduates to sit for required paramedic national registry examinations.
