Course Description

If a student has taken two 1-credit CWEs during the academic year, this 2-credit CWE must be taken in order to reach 4 credits of CWE required by the program. The CWE will provide the educational field internship experience on an Advanced Life Support Ambulance, required to prepare the student to achieve licensure as a Paramedic. The field internship allows the paramedic student to apply learned theory and skills in the internship setting while under the direct observation and guidance of a preceptor. Students must pass a terminal competency exam at the completion of all CWE requirements. Students will need 4 credits of CWE for completion of the Paramedicine degree. This course is meant to be taken during the Summer Term, if the student completed two 1-credit EMT 280A courses in the Winter and Spring Terms.
