I took the full-time EMT course here 2 years ago with Kyle and then recently completed my refresher course with Dana. Both instructors are very qualified, helpful, kind, and good communicators who taught the class thoroughly and efficiently. If you are interested in joining a class, here is something to keep in mind: EMT classes are DIFFICULT. They are much more challenging if you choose to take it full time like I did since there is so much new information you need to know in a shorter period of time. That being said, it is likely you will not pass if you are not fully committed to studying everyday and learning the skills. You will be given everything you need to know in class but it is ultimately up to you to thoroughly understand it and commit it to memory. West Coast EMT has a very friendly and helpful staff that will offer a lot of tips and guidance if you ask for additional help. Instructors here truly want you to succeed and do everything in their power to assure that. I have also found the student community to be wonderful and supportive so I recommend starting study groups and building relationships with your fellow future EMTs.

I was real disappointed with the instructor Sam because she made a mistake on my score of my last exam I was under the impression I had earn an 80% of the class to be able to take the final exam. To my knowledge I had check my grade on the day I took block 4 exam an I even screen shoot my grade so I was ready to take the final and when the retake took place for the people to be able to move forward she ask me to speak with her after class. Then they way she approached me was pretty rude like how dare did I sit through her lecture and not bother to take the retake exam. I literally was so lost because in my mind I had passed, but it turns out I didn’t pass an I missed the retake in which I really think she should have notified me that I didn’t pass also she talk to everyone that didn’t pass on that day and she never talk to me so I assume I passed since in my profile I had the 80%. I also think she literally input my grade by mistake In which she had from Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday at the end of class when she informed me that I didn’t pass. She had 5 days to tell me and she didn’t tell me at the end of class. It’s so upsetting because she could have pulled me out and said hey why aren’t you at the retake also I had check my grade on Monday May 17,2021 and my grade was still at 80.3 percent like when did she find out she made a mistake. Well it’s really unfortunate that this happen to me I honestly feel real upset an I’m giving this place 3 stars because the educational structure is for people that have knowledge on EMS and medical. Reading the book is a must and study because everything is really fast, however Sam made a mistake and it is unfortunate I was the victim. She told me they can give me a $100 discount but this was her mistake I really thought I had passed an had my hopes up but this just made me realize she is just doing her job and I am another student who didn’t pass because she failed to put my in the right grade I could have prepare for the retake and I didn’t even take it because I missed it. This change the way I view this place so for future students study hard make sure she inputs the correct grade so this does not happen to anyone else other wise you’ll have to pay again an hosnetly I don’t have that type of $$$ so good luck.

First- Shout Outs to some incredible instructors who are NOT there to fail you or to demean you. Sam- Class Instructor was PHENOMENAL! She constantly responded to emails, she is able to take the most complicated concept and break it down for you to understand it. I requested a lot of clarifications and was able to study with here one on one on an off day. Her commitment to a student who puts 100% in is unparalleled.Shout outs to the skills instructors Dan(This old salt who had a really big heart and YEARS of knowledge) RJ and Sarah (both Compassionate and Dedicated to ensuring you understand, def mood lifters). While I should take the time to state that the program could be improved if a Guide on the Skills was given to each student instead of each student writing it down themselves- this would ensure continuity across the Skills Instructors; it should be noted the Skills Instructors we’re aware of these issues and were more worried about the student understanding the major concepts to be prepared for the real world and NREMT exam/test. (Example: One instructor stated to wrap the thumbs togeather whereas another instructor told us not too)The FULLTIME program itself: a ROUGH INTENSE 5 weeks. Its actuality 4 weeks of class with the 5th week consisting of tests. (150 Multiple Choice Final and a Skills Practical) Class started at 0800 M,T,W, TH. It ended around 1600 everyday (some days going to 1700) with an hour for lunch. They do NOT go over every chapter in the Orange book. You are expected to read Chapters by yourself. By biggest recommendation is to Read Chapter 1-6 (or more!) before taking the course. I had to email Matt as this information was NOT put out ahead of time. I would recommend to read and annotate in the book as opposed to taking notes as you will be taking notes in class about the chapters.Note that Wednesday’s are Skills days and are half day. Groups of 6-8 will learn skills togeather.All of your paperwork isn’t due until the end of the last week, but get it all done before class starts. The three days you have “off” are chockerblocked with filling out Study Guides, Sign and Symptoms Notebook, and Reading the Book. (Each chapter takes about 1-2 hours to read).Do not expect to have any down time or time off. I didn’t do anything but this course for the entire 5 weeks. It was mentally exhausting. (I had a cheat afternoon every week on Friday or Saturday where I would hang with friends)We started with 40 and ended with 32 because many students didn’t realize the time commitment or intensity of the course. In addition, the tests are pretty hard. The Midterm and Final pull from the Orange Book- but it can be anything that has been discussed. Studying is a MUST. I’d recommend putting the S/S in a Xcel file btw!Last but not least: the Facilities are lacking any type of water machine and for the 5 weeks I was there, the refrigerator at the Anahaiem campus has black mold in it and the vending machines did not work properly. Being a water bottle! The bathrooms and classroom are wicked nice though! There is a bunch of teaching aids that are in good condition as well :)Overall: I am very happy with my investment with time and money. I can’t thank the instructors enough! But the program could be Improved through standardized Skills Guides for the student, a Water Machine for the Campus, and alerting students to read at least two weeks in advance for the course.

West Coast EMT - Prep Course (Dana)I took the Prep Course for EMT with Dana and I cant stress how great of an instructor she is. She is very intelligent, experienced, knowledgeable, helpful, genuinely caring -- she teaches you how to fish instead of giving you the fish -- which is great. I respect her so much and she is so attentive and caring with her students. Super super grateful to have her as an instructor. Shes amazing - highly recommend her to everyone considering going EMT/paramedic/medical route

This school needs better instructors that actually care...keep in mind not all instructors but some are just plain terrible. I renew my emt cert frequently through this school and usually have no issues but I sent my wife here for full emt instruction and she was assigned Manny as an instructor. Manny is so bad at instructing. He reads off slides and does little else. When you ask questions, he has no answers--only, Well if you read chapter so and so... Im so frustrated. I could teach a better EMT course. Maybe if there was actual oversight from the owner there wouldnt be this issue but Im sure hes just laughing all the way to the bank. TEACH EMTs LIKE THEY ARE SAVING LIVES, NOT LIKE THEYRE YOUR CHECK!!! Go to CIEMT in Long Beach, they actually teach.

Excellent teaching staff. Highly recommend. Will return for certification renewal.

Nothing but good things to say about this program and the people that are there. Kyle is the man. He is there to help you succeed. Him and the instructors for practical skills know what theyre doing, but most importantly, know why theyre doing it. Also, with the amount of information you need to not only read, but understand, it takes a degree of self-guidance to get through this bc it can get tough at times but no matter what, if you have questions they are there to guide you to the answer. Dont be afraid to dive right in and ask for help because the answer is always going to be no unless you ask. Really enjoyed my time here and am beyond grateful for their help.

Sam is an amazing instructor!

I was a full-time EMT student here in February/March 2020. I thoroughly enjoyed my experience with West Coast EMT. Kent was an awesome instructor that kept us engaged and smiling through lectures and hands-on skills sessions. He took the material seriously but had a down-to-earth, understanding attitude that was very receptive to questions (no such thing as a stupid question). Shout-out to Emily the administrator who posted our grades super fast as well! The class covered a TON of material, so theres not really any off time outside of class. If you dont dedicate all of your attention and efforts, dont expect to pass. I assume the poor reviews are those from students who were not able to put in 100%

Amazing staff. Very friendly and professional!

It was a fast program that requires your full attention. I would recommend this to a friend due to the skills days and structure. Jackie was helpful and would respond quickly to emails. My course instructor was good, but couldve relied less on the powerpoints.

Customer service is extremely rude, they say to teach you how to help people but they are definitely not helping you. Especially with payment plans. At the end I decided to choose another school which was cheaper with faster courses.

West Coast EMT is a great place to get your required credentials. i.e. BLS, ACLS, PALS, etc. User friendly website. Reasonably priced. Confidently located near Angel Stadium. Friendly and knowledgeable staff.

I completed the full-time EMT course with WestCoast 10/9, and I had a great time. My instructor was Kyle F and he was everything a student could ask for in an instructor! He was super knowledgable and always made sure to answer all the questions other students and myself and I had. Further, the skills instructors were always applying skills to real-world EMS. If you study and listen to the advice given to you by the instructors you are set up for success! I just passed my NREMT 10 days after I finished the course, thanks WestCoast!

Kyle is literally the best! Hell bend over backwards to help you out and make sure you do well but you definitely have to do the work on your end as well. If you do the full-time class just be prepared to actually make that youre full-time job between class and studying. Its only 5 weeks which is very do-able and itll be so worth it when its done. Super fun class with great instructors! Both Kyle and Dana are amazing and hilarious with great stories and real world experience. They truly care about helping you do well.

I have had an amazing experience attending the full time program at West Coast. Kyle was a supportive, helpful, and funny instructor that has experience as a Paramedic and would share antidotes to help connect textbook information to the real world. The skills instructors were also more than willing to help you learn and give advice about the course. For those looking to take this class, I must emphasize to read the book as much as possible. This course passes by very quickly but it is definitely achievable. Kyle does a great job of letting you know what is the most important information to study for quizzes and exams. This campus does not offer wifi to the students and I definitely feel that I would have done better in the course of it weren’t for this. Overall, I am so grateful for this journey and thank those who helped me along the way. I now feel that I have a solid foundation entering the medical/EMS field.

Kyle is the absolute best teacher/person ever! I’ve never met anyone who wants their students to succeed more than him! He genuinely cares and will help you out in whatever way possible. And on top of that he’s literally the funniest dude ever. He makes the class fun and interactive!You have to work super hard for this class but it’s so worth it. You learn a lot and meet awesome people.Dana is also sooo amazing!!! She taught us for a week and was such a great teacher! Our class definitely got the best of both worlds by having both Kyle and Dana! They care more than any other instructors I’ve had and have so much experience and are able to explain things very well.This program is put together so well and they make it feel so welcoming!

Program is great! I took the full time class and had Kyle as my instructor. Its very obvious that Kyle cares about his students and your success in the course. He was always there to answer questions and give more help when we needed it. The Full time class is definitely a lot of work, but if your willing to put in the effort its a good accelerated course. Matt, Kyle, Dana, and the rest of the staff at West Coast EMT make it easy for me to recommend this course.

Excellent choice for BLS renewal. The process was smooth as butter, I’ll be back in 2 years.

Very easy process, staff is very knowledgeable, and friendly, facility is clean and neat. Highly recommended place to renew your BLS, ACLS, etc, etc. Just hard to find because no street view, and directions from the lobby take you outside and no more directions from there. FYI the office is located in the south, outside of the building.

Kyle and Dana were really great instructors and care a lot about helping you completely understand the material and get as much out of the class as possible. I really appreciated their dedication to our learning and always going out of their way to help in any way possible! This is a great place to go if you really want to know your stuff!

I took the Full Time Course (1 month accelerated program) and it definitely required a lot more time and studying in order to keep up with the curriculum. I recommend reading the chapters ahead of time and definitely studying from the assigned homework and quizzes. Although it was a lot of work, it was definitely doable if you’re willing to put in the effort. The instructors at WCEMT are all very helpful and willing to explain anything and everything you need help with. Kyle was my main instructor and made this learning experience as fun as possible, relating information to his real life experiences and giving funny anecdotes. You can really tell that the staff want you to succeed and to become competent EMT’s. I loved this program and I left feeling ready and excited get out into the field.

Great place, and awesome teachers! It is very challenging and a lot of reading and studying. The certificate is not just handed to anyone, you really have to earn it. I would not expect anything less since after this course, and the NREMT, people’s lives and health will be in your hands! Met a lot of new friends and we all passed together!

Definitely 5 stars, I went to this school in August 2015. I am one of the people who took the 5 week class, it was honestly incredibly hard, especially since I had no background in medicine, and had a full time job. However, I can proudly say that I am an EMT for Care Ambulance Service now. It didnt take me long to get hired either, my class ended in September, I had a job by October. Work hard and you will be rewarded, I am very thankful to have heard of this school. My life seems like a dream come true now, I am getting ready to take the next step in my career, none of this would be possible without West Coast EMT.THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It’s a good program and you learn so much. The staff is great and the instructors are helpful. They will work with you, but you have to put in the work as well. If you’re going to take the full time class, try and read some of the chapters ahead of time because it will prepare you.

The five-week course is challenging but rewarding. Kyle and Dana are great instructors who want to see their students succeed. Ask your instructors (and skills instructors!) any questions you might have, and read the chapters ahead of time.

Just finished the first day of EMT School at West Coast EMT!! They run a tight ship! Feel honored to be a part of this School! The class was Amazing! Our instructor Manny is Awesome!! My fellow classmates are Blessed People whove gathered here, from all over, from different backgrounds, for the common goal of helping people. Wearing our Badges Proud! May the Force be with us all!!

This is just a reflection of my personal experience here. i was in the weekend course classes for their 12 week program. you take 4 test and 4 quizzes and you have to get an average of 80% in order to get the opportunity to take the final exam. This final is pass/no pass, so even if you had a 99% average but fail the final you fail the ENTIRE class. If you pass the final then you have the opportunity to take the NREMT.For my class ~60 people started ~25 achieved the 80% or higher average, and ~only 10 passed the class :/ that’s only 6%!!!The class is $1000 + ~$100 for uniform and ~$100 for the homework code/book.this class will teach you a lot and prepare you for the field if you take everything away with you regardless if you pass or fail.

The program has great instructors that do everything they can to help you pass. The full time course required a lot of time but if you’re willing to put in the work it’s definitely worth it.

Great staff, great facility, incredible teaching. I had Kyle Ferguson as my instructor. The man is absolutely dedicated and helpful and has a great sense of humor. All in all, I had a great experience.

Friendly staff, however the class is accelerated and its 100% book reading. The instructor just reads from a power point. I came here to learn not just to get my EMT certification out of the way. Facilities are in terrible condition. Bathrooms are a mess and smell, chairs are weak and break, they dont have enough tools such as stethoscopes, blood pressure cuffs, and etc. for the class to use. My classes were supposed to get a tour of the ambulance and both classes did not get that.This class has no real hand on experience nor is there any form of organized curriculum. Everything about this class besides the kindness the employees had was sub-par. I hate to rate it so low because of how nice these people were but it truly is a terrible school and I recommended you dont make the same mistake as me and just look elsewhere.If you are good at reading and memorizing bulk amounts of information then fine this is for you. But if youre looking to learn, you wont get much here.

The instructor, Kyle, is great at explaining the topics and will go above and beyond to ensure that you understand the material. The full-time does go fast but, as long as you spend all the time you have off studying and doing the homework, you have a good chance of passing.

Fast paced class but the staff and skills instructors were super friendly and easy to talk to so it wasnt that bad. Loved having Kyle as an instructor, hes funny. :)

Extremely well run program! You learn a lot of information that can be applied in the field! Matt is a great director and Kyle is the best instructor!

Great school dedicated to preparing you to become a competent EMT. Awesome instructors (shout out to Kyle) and skills instructors. I would definitely recommend this class to anyone who is contemplating becoming an EMT. I can say that by the end I do feel ready to take the NREMT.

This program is for those who are seriously considering a job in the field. If you dont have dedication to the class you will not pass. This class doesnt require you to have any prerequisites but it may be a good idea to take the initiative to do so on your own. This class is totally doable if youre willing to dedicate the time to do the work as well as apply yourself.

Had fun and learned so much at the initial bls class thanks again Sam!

The 1 month program REALLY makes you WORK. Make sure you dedicate an ENTIRE month to class AND OUTSIDE STUDYING! They want you to be great, so don’t take this course lightly.

LOVE West Coast EMT Anaheim! I took the Full-Time course with Kyle as my instructor, definitely challenging but extremely rewarding.

I got ripe off also. Waste of time and money. Not a good program.

I took the course before and it was horrible they didnt review anything, matt keeps using the same textbook and every class theres something wrong with it. I retool the last class and the final was nowhere near the material we studied and they were teaching so fast and matt does not allow you to even see your old test, and you have to catch him if your lucky to review Kyle is a good teacher funny dude, Sarah is super chill and helps you out! I wouldnt recommended anyone going here and I studied for 5 hours after class needed I did the monday/Wednesday class 6-10 and still struggled with the material because matt doesnt want to switch textbooks, and he dosent give out the wifi password for the students to study!!! Dont waste your money and or time here because you will regret it and be out of money I should know, and the final they wont tell you the percentage to pass its a private score and you have to hope you passed and they call you if you failed and no call of you pass!!

As a former Marine Corps combat veteran I found this course to lack good structure. While in the Marine Corps I served as a Military Police officer and first responder. I often found myself arriving to medical calls before Fire and EMS. Since I have already acquired a college degree, I decided to sign up for the West Coast EMT course to boast my resume while I continue looking for a job in Law Enforcement. The knowledge would be useful since Police officers are considered first responders – as mentioned above often arrive on scene before Fire and EMS. I feel that I was sold on the course and other provisions could’ve been stated before I signed up. I would highly suggest taking a class in Anatomy which was also stated by the instructor on the first day of class. Her actual words were “if you haven’t taken a class in anatomy you’re already behind”. The course is not easy and I knew that prior to signing up. Yet, motivated I dove right in. I soon realized that this course was designed to push people through with valued revenue only in mind. I realized that the courses skipped through chapters and provided poor power points on only certain chapters. The most upsetting part was the sad run down of human anatomy which is reviewed in chapter six of the text. I thus purchased a book on human anatomy to explain what the instructor could not as a result of four hour class session. I was passing the exams though struggling as a result of no guidance on what to study and retain within the material –this helps when reading over 350 pages of material in two weeks. Furthermore, it would be a great guidance tool if the program provided study guides and highlighted important chapters to focus on instead of relying on JB Learning to do that for them. This would greatly boost your rate of students who complete the course. I felt that I was not learning anything while attending the classes. Truthfully my final decision to quit the program came Tuesday night when an HR rep from an ambulance company came to speak with the class. I paid a thousand dollars out of pocket as a struggling veteran to learn Knowledge while attending class. The HR spoke for almost an hours as I continued staring at my watch. Thus ultimately wasting valuable classroom time. I suggest that West Coast EMT in the future, wait until the end of the program to bring in an HR rep looking to Hire EMT’s. I would not suggest this program to my Veteran Brothers and sisters. I will continue on with EMT at Saddleback college where I was advised to do so by other Vets who have completed their EMT and passed the national registry.

DISHONEST BUSINESS !They Dont Care about their students success. THEIR FOCUS is to take Your MONEY thats it.This is Not a program where they will teach you anything.Spend your $1300 elsewhere, where you actually get something for it.Please give yourselves a favor - research them a little - see their Yelp reviews on both Redondo and Anaheim locations for example.Instructor is there - just for looks, not teaching but flipping quickly through slides, not even reading them fully, skipping some entirely. Not mentioning cursing throughout the lectures and the program.You are required to be present in class for 8hours while instructor is rushing through a bunch of chapters. There is no academic structure. It’s a waste of time and energy sitting there.Here you have to be able to take their detailed exams without having the detailed information instructed to you prior. gaining at least 80.BEWARE! When you Fail because they didnt teach you detailed information to their detailed exams - youll be told by Matt (owner) its all Your Fault, that you didnt know what they didnt teach you or that they dont even allow you to know what you missed on exams throughout the course.BEWARE! When owner Matt tells yall that they constantly are working on Improving the program...etc - Because This is True - you are a GUINEA PIG in this situation, who is paying a lot to be put through this UNPROFESSIONAL program without any solid structure behind it. Not a school but some sort of mental boot camp where students struggle on their own.Full Time EMT course - is a FAST REVIEW COURSE for people who already have a pretty extensive knowledge in health science.They DONT TEACH You material you will be tested on.After tests/exams you wont know what you missed, youll never know what you missed until you are in the field working and make a crucial mistake I guess.More than HALf of our 14 people CLASS FAILED two days before final, and three days before end of program.Them accepting anyone who will pay $$$$ and not letting people know that this is- Super fast and intense program where You will Have To Learn All On Your Own- You will need to have ALL OF YOUR TIME to STUDY, and- some extra powerful academic skills to take exams (where occasionally some of the questions will be made up - in INCORRECT ACADEMIC FORMAT by the owner, because he doesnt want to make it easy to pass which is not already and ridiculous anyway! as they Do Not Teach You In Class) with gaining 80 or above without them preparing you At AllAll these components are setting students for failure. Its not right. Its NOT FAIR.This felt to me unprofessional and just really money-grabbing experience, not an academic one.There Must be a Warning - that this program is Not Designed for people who have no health science background. And that it’s basically self-taught.Do not waste your time and money with this school.Class is about $1000 (where they suppose to teach you but they don’t)Book w online access is about - $100Mandatory Uniform - $200 that you won’t be able to use anywhere else ever (has embroidered “student”, their logo and your last name on it)$200 for mandatory uniform consists of:$45 button up shirt and pants plus tax$100 EMT boots plus tax$16 black belt plus taxIn addition the button up shirt is so cheap and synthetic that you can’t breath in it - No Joke, most people in our class had to opt out to buy their cotton T-shirt for additional $25 (they only take Cash for that ;)

I did the full time 5 week course and found it to be too difficult and overwhelming. Though I paid close attention in class, read and studied the book and felt like I had a good handle on the information I wasnt able to pass the course. Most other students didnt either. The students who did well typically had some prior medical experience or were re-taking the course. So I say avoid the 5 week class if youre brand new to this field - as I and many other students of my class were who struggled. Without West Coast EMT having any prerequisites or entrance exams or anything of that nature to see if the students are realistically capable of passing the 5 week course they are essentially setting students up to fail.

I want to start off by saying that I comfortably passed this class and am not writing a low review due to being dropped.There are three major things wrong with this “school”.1. 20+ hrs of down timeDuring just the first week I noticed that we were spending HOURS of time waiting for our instructor or waiting for our turn to learn hands on skills. By the last day of the first week I started timing how much time we were paying for without being taught. It added up to AT LEAST 20hrs in only a 5 week course.The program director said to stop complaining and just study instead. However, we were told to study hundreds of pages on our own while we were paying (1000+) to be taught.2. Illogical testingProbably my biggest issue out of all my troubles with WCEMT is that Matt, the program director writes all the tests and quizzes himself. This became a problem because many of the questions would have two correct answers or literally no right answer at all.He even quizzed us on a question that wasn’t in the unit we were learning and when shown the error he said he wouldn’t correct anyone’s grades because of it.This is a common complaint with WCEMT and is always met with “we are getting them ready for the NREMT (nation exam) but every student that leaves to take it says that the exam was /nothing/ like how we were tested and that it actually made sense.All this is, is an arrogant man refusing to admit his mistakes.3. Money, money, moneyWCEMT brags about their high (sometimes 95%) national exam pass rate. What they don’t tell you is that they drop a majority of every class due to their grades. And they do this RIGHT before the final exam so then it’s too late to get any refund.I spent nearly $2000 (nearly a thousand dollars in hidden costs) and biked 20 miles a day to attend this course. The course was fairly easy but the company is interested in nothing but money and numbers.You have been warned.(P.S. my instructor was Kyle, and he’s actually a great dude who’s just in a bad situation by working there. Somebody else go hire him ASAP)

Took EMT refresher In Anaheim with Dana! Awesome instructor and class will be coming back in 2 years again!

Great staff and always have time to work with any questions you have.

Lol I went to register today I was so excited then I see a instructor and students arguing with each other while I was registering I was having second thoughts. Already thinking to myself how Unprofessional this was .then the rude front desk girl tells me class is full Ill be on the waiting list not giving me enough info like she didnt care just wanted me out of they way anyway Im glad I didnt go sign up here!

Just finished my 5 week Full Time Course at WCEMT and believe me its full time. This class will take all of your time for 5 weeks. Lots of long nights studying and getting 2-3 hours of sleep getting ready for the next day including weekends. Its not impossible but you have to read your book and put the work in. This class IS ACCELERATED and covers a ton of content extremely fast. I am thankful I took this class and had Dan as my instructor. He is an amazing instructor and knows the content so well he can teach in different ways like personal paramedic stories that actually pertain to the content we are supposed to learning. Jason is another institutor you would be very luck to have and I HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend you try and sigh up for what ever class they will be teaching. they will make your experience worth every penny. Our class became very close over these five weeks and have created amazing friendships. Teamwork is key for this class and 40 out of the 50 people made it though to the end. WCEMT is well known and will help you get hired fast.My personal experience I came in with absolutely zero medical experience and after these 5 weeks I feel ready and qualified to get in an ambulance and start running calls. I feel confident in my knowledge and want to continue learning more. I recommend reading your text book before class and getting a good understanding of the Airway Breathing and Circulation of blood through the body before class starts, it will help later. It not impossible and they are not setting you up to fail. The instructors will do everything to help you if you ask them, but its up to you to read and learn the content required. If you have any questions or want for the class follow me on Instagram and DM me kirk_lennonGOOD LUCK!Thank you Dan and Jason!

I’ve taken two emt classes in this last past year. Just finished west coast and took saddleback college community colleges emt course at the beginning of the year. I’d say If you want a more enjoyable emt course and live near saddleback go there. West coast was convenient because it was only 1 day a week for the hybrid course, but in class I feel like I wasn’t really learning anything. The teacher for west coast wasn’t very nice also. Saddlebacks emt course has one of the funniest and nicest teacher. Saddlebacks course is also a little cheaper. I wouldn’t recommend west coast emt, unless you are limited on time and can’t be in class 2 days a week for 12 hours.

The coolest! Mr. Ferguson is the best!

Cool
