The EMT program is delivered through a combination of classroom instruction (didactic and psychomotor) and clinical experience. Upon completion of the EMSB courses with a “C” or better, students are eligible to sit for the National Registry’s written and practical examinations. Upon successful completion of these examinations and other licensure requirements, the student will be eligible for the State of Tennessee EMT license. The EMT renders life support to patients at the scene of their injuries or illnesses and prepares these patients for transport to the hospital.
