Allied Medical Training

I did my EMT skills week last week and I just passed the NREMT exam earlier today -- I couldn't recommend Allied enough!

Took the online EMT refresher course for recertification and I am so glad that I did! Courses were thorough, engaging, and very informative! I learned more than I probably learned in my EMT course. Lol. The whole course was extremely organized and I highly recommend it! (I am renewing my NREMT in Texas) Thank you AMT!

I, as along with many others (I suspect) had found AMT via Google as one of the only accelerated EMT-B courses in the Twin Cities area. One of the major reasons why this course appealed to me was because I'm pre-med, and that time is limited. The biggest hump to signing up was was the costly up-front for fee for registration for such an online-hybrid EMT-B course, but I now having gone through with it, I'm quite happy that I did. I found that besides the website's testimonials, there was not much information in regards to client experiences, and that is mainly why I'm writing this review. The hybrid course is split up into two distinct parts. The first part is online, and the second is in-person at one of their two facilities (Edina or St. Paul facility, which is of your choice). The online portion of the class tests your patience (in a good way)--having to read, watch a video-lecture (~1 hour each), and be quizzed individually on each of the 39 chapters of its EMT textbook (Emergency Care 13th edition). This isn't by any means taking away from the class because it is what you signed up for (hence, it is an accelerated hybrid course). You just have to know what you're getting yourself into--especially if you're in a time crunch. I would advise that the minimum time spent to finish the online portion of the course is around 39 days (which would be ~1 chapter per-day). I would think that anything less than that, and you wouldn't be digesting the material well enough, which is critical for passing the Final exam of the online portion. But that's my opinion. The in-person ("Skills-week") is the highlight of this course, which is a display of group-focused activities, the usage of refined-teaching methods, and the sharing of valuable real-world experiences by its passionate faculty and staff (all of whom are very experienced in EMS themselves). The in-person section of the course is specifically focused around teaching material that's required for the NREMT psychomotor exams (which is the physical application of your textbook material), and is tested on at the end of Skills-week. Due to the short and expedited nature of in-person portion of the class, you may find yourself needing to repeat these psychomotor skills over-and-over again to brand them into memory, but that is more-or-less expected, and the staff are more than happy to help you with that. Lastly, the "When do I start?" question is important (especially, for us pre-meds). Unfortunately, that one is pretty unclear. This really depends on three factors: (1) How quickly you're able to schedule your NREMT exam following course completion, (2) How long it takes to receive your state licensure after passing the exam, and (3) Whether or not the hiring company will make a hire an while you're still in training. From what I've heard, you can expect 1-3 months until then. P.S. Even though this is stated on their website, I'll restate it here--These courses fill up especially quickly in the summer (several months before hand), and you better schedule them quick if you want that.
