Emergency Medical Technician Certificate
In cooperation with Northwestern Medicine and the McHenry Western Lake County EMS System, MCC provides specialized emergency medical technician courses for those interested in becoming professionally-trained emergency medical personnel. Earn your Emergency Medical Technician-Paramedic Associate in Applied Sciences (AAS) degree and learn to stabilize accident victims and others in medical crisis at the scene - prior to transport to a health care facility.
MCC also offers you the opportunity to cross-train through our Fire Science program.
Working as an EMS provider requires significant physical strength, dexterity, and the ability to function in very adverse environments with exposure to numerous safety risks typically found at emergency scenes. Can you meet or exceed these EMS Provider Functional Requirements and Physical Expectations?
