The staff here will make sure you are dedicated in becoming an EMT. There is no better staff, experience or instructions anyone will get to become an EMT. I can say with my whole heart that I will become a humble and kind-hearted first responder because of all I have learned from Dr. Levys accelerated EMT course at Yeshiva. I now look at any ambulance differently and hope to one day be on one, trying to save lives to the best of my ability. I could have never done it without the help of the wonderful people at Aura. :)

I took this Yeshiva accelerated EMT course organized by Dr. Levy this June. It was most definitely a great experience! The instructors go above and beyond and are exactly how you wish your professors in college were. I would love to work a shift with any one of them. PS if you ask nicely they tell you some really interesting stories about their experiences.

I Just finished the EMT course organized by Dr. Levy and had a great experience! Because of Covid the lectures were given on zoom but Sean did a great job making it not only easy but enjoyable to learn! We had a week of in person skills days where every instructor genuinely wanted to help you learn! Amazing people and I highly recommend the program!

I finished this course last week and I would highly recommend it for anyone who wants to become an EMT. I’m not a pre-med student and didn’t know much about bio or anatomy but Sean was an awesome teacher and made it enjoyable to pay attention in class and study after. Dr. Levy was always very responsive and helpful. All the staff was amazing to learn from and hilarious at the same time. 5 stars for sure.

Just finished this EMT course! The instructors were amazing and made the learning process fun. They really prepared us for real word situations and shared from their own (really cool) experiences. I would recommend this to anyone thinking of becoming an EMT!

I obtained my EMT certification from Aura Prep and it is literally one of the best things I’ve ever done in my life. They taught me so much. I constantly doubted myself and they were always so helpful and reassuring. The instructors took their time and made sure I understood the information. I am so glad I went to Aura Prep!!! Thank you!

This class was amazing! It was fun, engaging, and applicable. Dr. Levy, Sean, and all the other instructors cared so much about our success in the class. I’ve literally never had such an attentive teacher before. I would HIGHLY recommend this class to literally anyone. 11/10 would recommend for people wanting to go into healthcare.

I did my first refresher with Aura Prep and Sean and it was great. Sean is an excellent teacher and his program did a great job preparing me. The practical tests were well run, and I had no problem pass the state written exam and with a high score. I can def recommend Sean Graves and his school to any EMT.

Aura Prep is a very efficient program for teaching and learning, and our instructor Sean perfectly complimented the program! I couldn’t imagine learning to be an EMT any other way. I am confident that I will perform well in the field as a result :)

When I was 18 being in the Medical Field was something I always had a passion for. Then following my Uncle’s foot steps in the world of EMS, made my passion grow. Thanks to Aura Prep, I decided to get back into the game and give back to the communities I serve. Aura helped me in many ways that one could not even imagine. Thanks to Aura Prep I’ve gained my confidence back and I’m ready to move forward and escalate.Thank you to Jose Prosper, Jose Zacariaz, Sean Graves and the rest of the team for believing in me and for helping me reach my goals!You want to become a EMT? Go to Aura Prep, you won’t be sorry!:) S.E.

Sean Graves is the absolute best EMS instructor - bar none. His clinical prowess is impressive to say the least, but the ways in which he breaks down lesson material and physiological concepts for students to easily digest is what makes his brand of teaching invaluable. This, partnered with years of field experience and service on the REMSCO board elevate him as an invaluable industry leader, and true advocate for current and future providers alike. He will change EMS for the better, and any students contemplating precepting through Aura Prep should jump at the chance.

The instructors at Aura Prep are top notch. Not only did they prepare me for the exams to qualify as an EMT but gave me the knowledge and confidence to work in the field as well. While i work now as an EMT i regularly refer back to the lessons learned while at Aura Prep

Studying with Aura prep would be considered as the best choice Ive ever made during the pandemic year. The teachers prep their students for success from day one. Each individual who chose to study EMT with Aura prep, must have the drives to learn and unafraid to ask questions.

The program is a bit overwhelming at first because there is so much information condensed into such a short amount of time. However, the instructors make sure you are oriented with the most pertinent information to be successful in this course. If you study often, ask questions, and pay attention, you’re guaranteed to be successful in this course.

If you a pre-health student and you are looking to gain clinical experience, the accelerated EMT program conducted by Dr.Levy and Yeshiva University is the place to go! You’ll learn a lot from Sean and the other instructors. You are provided with equipment that is yours to keep; such as a stethoscope and blood pressure cuff. Most importantly, you’ll have fun and end the program CPR certified, EMT certified and ready to take on the healthcare field!!! 10/10 experience

I completed my EMT course earlier this year with Aura Prep. My experience was amazing. The instructors were GREAT, I felt the curriculum was well paced and they were there to help you with any questions. Every class was fun and interesting and interactive. And the teachers were so genuinely dedicated, really invested in our progress. There were many students from different educational backgrounds, pursuing various paths; which was so intriguing and inspiring, we all helped each other and even opened one another’s eyes to other possible opportunities we could have with this emt cert. The instructors provided a strong and reliable community to grow in and I am honored to have been apart of it, and eager to begin a career as an emt.

I have been in EMS a number of years internationally and decided to qualify as an EMT in the US (specifically New York). I cannot recommend them enough. Sean Graves is a very knowledgeable EMT educator and doesnt make the course easy!The practical training was well run and delivered to a high standard even with the challenges of Covid-19. I passed the NYS EMT and NREMT exam first time thanks to them. I will definitely be back when I need to refresh.

Couldnt have had a better experience here! The instructors are all highly experienced and share their field knowledge with stories that help you remember all the info better. I learned way more in this Beginner EMT class than I did in any of my college classes.

We hired Aura Prep to come clean and sanitize our office to prepare for our re-opening after NYC opened Phase 2. We also purchased hand sanitizers dispensers and pumps. As well as soap and paper towel dispensers for our bathrooms. All touch free models. These guys are professional, caring and provided an amazing job. They are reliable and always there to take a call and provide me with options. We liked them so much that we have them doing monthly sanitizing for our office. A very reputable and trustworthy company to deal with.

I have been in the Emergency Business for over 30 years and was Deputy Chief of Training at the FDNY/EMS Academy. I have refreshed in person in the past with these guys and just completed the remote refresher with Sean Graves due to Corona concerns. Great content and resources, definitely a pro operation. They offer a variety of Training and services and I certainly would recommend them to all. Keep up the good work.

Aura stands out among the EMT certification schools in the NYC area. Graduates of other programs reported not having as well rounded an experience as those of us who certified through Aura did. All instructors are seasoned first responders who do not hesitate to share their personal experiences and strengths with students. They are as passionate in their mission to save lives as they are in teaching the future generations of EMS. I have had the amazing opportunity to work emergencies alongside my instructors. These folks not only talk the talk, they walk the walk. If you have a desire to help others and are looking for a place to start your career in EMS, look no further.

Out of the many options to become EMT certified in the NYC area, I can guarantee you that this is the absolute best. The instructors available bring their unique experience to the classroom, and beyond completion their staff will not be forgotten. Anyone who works in the 911 system in NYC knows AURA and their instructors. If you are looking to pursue a career in emergency medicine, I highly recommend any program that they have to offer. I personally went in blind to their John Jay class and have since forgone a career in EMS that I would otherwise think impossible. From hospital based EMS, to FDNY the skills taught by AURA stand true.

I can only say amazing things about this program and the people who run it. The instructors are real life inspirations and go above and beyond to help their students reach goals and become first responders! 2020 has been a strange year and although our classes were mostly online - this program truly puts effort and has given me a chance to become an EMT and save lives. I’m forever grateful for each and everyone of you that have broadened my mind. Even still they continue to push us to be the best EMT and push my career to higher levels. If you’re looking for a legit school and someone to guide you through this career path Aura prep is it! Sean,Kevin,prosper, sharkey,Felix,Kaylen just to name a few that I look upto and thank for teaching me! Much gratitude.

I cant say enough about Aura, my experience was nothing short of noteworthy. Im now a certified EMT, and I couldnt have done it without the help of Aura Prep and their amazing staff. Sean went above and beyond for my class especially during this pandemic to provide us with, professionalism, great communication, detailed training, and was happy to meet our needs as individuals and as a class. But the best part of it all was the hands on training, they ensured a clean, sanitized and safe environment for us. Provided us with amazing instructors who went the extra mile for us and made sure we not only understood the material, but diligently worked on skills, gave us effective feedback, showed care and concern when any one of us found ourselves in challenging situations. Thank you to our instructors Felix, Kaylan, Jose, and sharky! and of course Mr. Mahony who didnt let me fail, never gave up on me even when I wanted to give up on myself. kept up with encouraging and empowering us! all together a great opportunity, great people and experience.

I have been a NYS certified Emt-b since 2003. Every 3 years we have to recertify. I went to Aura prep for my last recert and I can honestly say that their course prepares you for the job. They dont just shove class material in your face and get you ready for the state exam. They shed light on the profession itself. They explain the ethics and moral code. They teach you the protocols and procedures but even more important they teach you how to implement them on your calls. If you are new to the profession, trying to get back in it after a break, or have been in it and just need to recertify to stay employed Aura prep is the program you need. With online classes, and flexible scheduling ,you will be able to work around your life schedule easily. The acceleration program is also great for those who want to get it done in 3months instead of 6 months. All the instructors have years of hands on experience in NYC and NYS EMS system you will learn a lot from them. I have been referring all my EMS coworkers and regular friends and have had 0 complaints. So if you know anyone who wants to join EMS or recertify send them to Aura prep. They will thank you for it.
