EMT Externship & Certification
Externship
The EMT Program includes placement into an externship at the end of the course. A clinical externship is required in California in order to obtain state licensure. The experience helps our students get their foot in the door faster because they are job-ready. Many of our students are recruited during their time in our program, even before they graduate.
Certification
Tuition at CALRegional includes the EMT certification exam through the NREMT. Once students successfully pass the EMT class and externship and receive a certificate of completion, students are ready to take the national certification exam.
