Depends on how many they need to get through. I had my medical back in February, didn't get my poly until the end of July.

Hey just wondering if anybody on this thread is in the academy right now. Just wondering how it is and what it's like there

[blachatch]

The current academy is just finishing EMS training and is about to start suppression school. The academy is deifferent than years past with a new basic training staff. They do PT 5 days a week. As long as you are in decent shape you will be fine.

Ok thanks and another quick question if you have ur national registry EMT can u pretty much skip the EMS portion and not have to test

[blachatch]

Nope, you still have to take all of the exams and pass everything. You will not sit for the national registry test obviously.

[blachatch]

^^ That is if your an EMT basic.
