Not sure about out there, but here they are done though the community colleges

If you are associated with any DOD, Federal, or local gov. agency (i.e. - local fire dept.) Try looking in to the course that the USCG has in Petaluma, CA. It's a condensed coures, 3 weeks, and has about an 80% National Regristry pass rate (compare that to a semester long course with pass rates in the 40-50% with most other courses)

If that's not an option for you, a local community college should offer a course.

Good luck

I'm a Paramedic and Acadian Ambulance has a great program in Lafayette, La.They even have one that is accelerated Mon-Fri for a few months....East Texas EMS in Tyler, Tx. also has some good classes!

Try the local Ambulance service in San Diego or if the Fire Dept runs EMS then try them. THey will be able to point you inthe right direction..Good Luck

Were you a medic or corpsman in the military? If you were in most instances you can challenge the testing process for EMT-B/EMT-P.

Daniel Freeman in the Los Angeles region is one of if not THE best medic training institutes in the US. Of course you'll pay through the nose but it's money well spent.

I'm NCTI alumni myself.

Or, you can try UCLA David Geffin School of Medicine, that's where I went for mine. Its a good program, with lots of choices. I went through the 3 week course, and was glad I did! Awesome instructors too.
