The Litchfield Ambulance Association is offering a State of CT Office of Emergency Medical Services certified Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) course. The course provides training and associated clinical experience dealing with medical and trauma-related emergencies and prepares the student for employment and/or volunteer service as an EMT. Students must be 16 years of age by the date of graduation. Parental authorization must be granted for all students under the age of 18.
Beginning on 09/02/25, the course will be held Tuesday and Thursday evenings beginning at 6:00 P.M. The anticipated conclusion date is 12/11/25. There are no weekend classes. The course is conducted at the Litchfield Ambulance Training Facility located at 35 Plumb Hill Rd. in Litchfield.
A laptop/tablet and internet access are required. This program combines classroom and on-line learning, which eliminates the need for class cancellation due to inclement weather. Students will have access to a video library that contains all classroom lectures, practical exercises, exams, and quizzes. Examinations are computer-based in order to prepare the student for the State of CT written exam. Attendance is mandatory, not optional. The video component serves as a supplement in the event of illness, inclement weather, or instructor-approved personal matters.
Financial hardship payment plans are addressed on an individual basis.
