20 Best Emt Programs In Dallas, TX (2022 Updated)

Would not recommend. I can't speak to the instructors since I never made it that far, but the staff needs a refresher course on office management. I work in an admin office and if I ignored customers as I was ignored by this college I would have been fired a long time ago. I had my former colleges send my official transcripts in April which both confirmed that they had. I asked in June and in July where we were in the processes. The only answer I received was that "we can't find them" and asked if they were submitted under another name. I had told them multiple times that they were submitted under my maiden name as I was not married when I received other degrees. No response. So I had them resent. There was no response. So after 24 hours I emailed both the registrar's office AND the email designed specifically for transcripts and did not hear back again. When I went up and emailed everyone in the admissions office suddenly they found my transcripts and my transcript hold disappeared like that. And then afterward, suddenly I received a response to one of my emails and the person I was speaking to was quite snippy with me saying that she "got to it when she could" although I had been inquiring for 2 MONTHS about the status of my transcripts. Fortunately this was going to be my first semester and I have enough time that I found another distance education vet tech degree from another college. I won't be registering for classes with Cedar Valley after this whole thing honestly its NOT worth it. Also, there is NO requirement to meet with an advisor and no one point of contact for Distance Education students. Their instructions for registering for classes are confusing and even inquiry emails were met with silence. Also it feels the admissions office was supplying contrary information on how to enroll in vet tech classes in the first place! If you're looking for a distance education vet tech program I HIGHLY RECOMMEND you going elsewhere. You'll just get frustrated here. I would give 0 stars if possibleAmy Shumway

I'm going to be fair and admit that the teachers I've had have been the most helpful, inspiring, and kind people I've ever met. Unfortunately I can't say the same for most of the staff up front. Most of the staff are rude and unhelpful, constantly running you in circles like they have no idea how anything works. The advising staff are very unhelpful as well. Patty Soper-Shaw placed me in two wrong classes my first semester, and admitted to me she had no idea about any of the technology courses I was trying to take. Because of that, I'm now left without the hardware course I needed to take before the software one which leads me to this biggest problem I have with this college. DO NOT TAKE TECHNOLOGY CLASSES HERE! It's a dead end. A majority of classes never have enough students to make the class work, so they're constantly being dropped. The dean of the technology department, Mr. Johnson, came to our class at the beginning of the Fall 2017 Semester to tell us our class is cancelled. He even admitted that the technology classes there are failing tor receive enough students for the classes, and apparently it's been that way for the past 10 years! It's to the point where my degree is absolutely useless, and because of the constant cancellations and mess ups between staff and advisers, my life is now behind because I can't even get a simple certification or degree. I've been at this school for three semesters, and after my class getting cancelled again, I've decided to finish up this last semester and move onto another college. This school is the most unorganized, uninformative, and misleading place I've ever been to. I'm not the only student this has happened to either. I've spoken with many at that school who have suffered from the same problems I spoke about. This school has been a nightmare to go to and get anything done at. I would never recommend it to anyone.Lee Collins

Awful experience. The advising staff were rude and unhelpful. Registration staff were extremely unhelpful and contradictory. After being led in pointless circles and constantly receiving contradictory information about required forms and materials, I was finally able to meet someone who understood what was going on (after talking with at least 4 different registration staff members). By the time everything was sorted out, the classes were filled up. The advising staff members are not accommodating, interrupting, and very accusatory. It should not be on the customers shoulders to filter through constant contradictions just to apply to the school. I did follow and submit the required material stated online. Apparently, the material submitted was no acceptable and I had to jump through many hoops and complete many tedious tasks just to be told it was all pointless and I didn't even have to do any of the "required" forms or tasks. Honestly, I just felt like I was wasting my time doing pointless tasks when most, if not all, of it could have been avoided. By the time all my information was processed, I had finished applying/enrolling, getting advised, registering for classes, and paying for the classes at a different community college. This was the most unorganized, confusing, drawn-out process I've ever had to go through for any college admission. Wasted so much time throughout this process. Oh, did I mention that no one knows how to pick up the phone? Called at many different points in time throughout the day just to be sent to voicemail… This happened for an entire week. Leave a voicemail and hope they get back to you promptly.Water Fountain

Lisa the advisor in Eastfield college was horrible. Everyone was nice and welcoming except for her. She wanted me quick out of her office as soon as possible. When I asked her a question she would seem annoyed. SHE IS SUPPOSED TO HELP PEOPLE AND WE ARE THE REASON SHE IS GETTING PAID TO DO HER JOB!!Joselyn Martinez

Joselyn & Myrna at admissions desk We’re super helpful and efficient they got me signed up for Econnect and got me my transcripts in less than 30 mins and definitely deserve a raise for there hard work and dedication to the current and future students of eastfield collegeR Bhgff

East field has a variety of programs that are affordable. I went here years ago. This time, I was breaking down the COVID vaccination site. The staff and security were most helpful during our stay here. Thank you.Howard Hamilton

I'll preface this with that the only reason this school is getting 2 stars is because staff has actually been helpful when I have reached out to try and fix things. But when I tell you EVERY step of this process has been an absolute nightmare I am not exaggerating. I am a TWU graduate and needed a quick summer class to take because i got a conditional acceptance to a graduate school. This is time sensitive. So, long story short every single step had some issue that took multiple phone calls and people to fix. The biggest issue was me paying for an official transcript, seeing that on the tracking information brookhaven had received the transcript, and days later having the transcript STILL not put into the system which kept me from registering for the class that my entire future quite literally depended on me taking. Because of the bad timing of spring break I had to register late and it took an hour in person of me and the wonderful admissions worker figuring it out because no one we needed to contact was actually on campus. Although she was incredibly helpful, it was obvious the entire set up was frustrating for her too. The website is outdated and confusing and I get endless errors- i couldn't even pay without there being an error. It should not take two weeks to get someone registered for one class.Brooke-Lynn Taylor

Christi Carter is an awful person who sees students making mistakes during class and says NOTHING, then cheats during the "random body part selection process for competicy testing" and gives you the one body part she saw you making a mistake on but said nothing during class so she can kick you out of the program. Absolute zero compassion for students and their education. Luckily I've graduated Radiology at a different college dispite her being an absolute awful teacher. How someone can be so curropt and unfair became director of the program is beyond me.__

I was at this campus just to get my Student ID this week. Everyone I encountered was kind and helpful from the security desk attendant to the staff in Student Services. When I was looking at one of the outside campus maps to find my way a staff member came up and assisted me with the directions to where I needed to go. Reading the other reviews here, I see others have had problems with admissions and financial aid – I think all universities have lots of complicated paperwork in regards to those areas, so patience is necessary.Curtis Johnson

This school is literally the worst, they take all day in the advising office and registration office. They will have one or two people helping more than 20 people and you would think that would make them have a sense of urgency but they do not. They all act as if they don’t feel like helping you and move so damn slow. I received 2 parking tickets during the time I have attended this school because two hours in a meter is not even enough. The best advisor is Shannon, the rest of them act like they don’t care and will not give you any guidance when your new to college, some will over talk you and not even pay attention or listen to what you are saying to them. This school will literally make you not want to attend college at all with how difficult they make the process. I am here at the college registering for my classes for the fall and have been here since 1:00 it is now 4:00pm smdh. If you plan on coming here make sure you have a whole day to spend here!!!! Ughlashay Green

I was suppose to be taking classes here last year but wasn't able to log in. I had a meeting and asked for help and she said she couldn't help me for some reason…I ended up texting & emailing people for help but they eighter didn't reply or said they were going to help me but then ended up not communicating back. I managed to call tec support and they said website was down. Few days later they called me & said they were going to put me on a list and since then I haven't heard anything. Haven't received a SINGLE email about it(update haven't received any emails or calls back)Edwin Avalos

I feel like putting a bad review I’m currently trying to see a councilor here at El Centro I came Thursday before 5pm and they told me it was closed but on the website they close at 5pm. Come to find out today a staff member told me they closed an hour early because they were having a spring break party. Today I’m trying to speak to an advisor I’m the only one here sitting in the lobby still waiting for someone to help me. I used to love this school but honestly service has gone down the drain. Someone please do something about this customer service that El Centro provides.Jessica Garcia

The only reason I placed 2 stars is because the dean and the man who enrolled us was great. But other than that,the reviews for this school is spot on. They care only about money. After financial aid,I was told I still needed to pay 221.00 a month or my daughter would be kicked out. The lady who assisted with FA couldn't care less about anyone who goes to this school. And don't have colored hair either,they'll make you change it. When my daughter could not log in to the online course,no one bothered to help or contact us. I had my daughter withdraw. 18,000 dollars and not even a call back. So I'd shop around for a school and make sure its best for you. This one tho,was not it.Katt T

When researching schools and you read “for-profit” as Concordes main description- believe it. I was accepted into the dental hygiene program and was asked to put a down payment of an amount that was almost 5x my rent. I was considered an “independent student.” (no financial help from family) As soon as I communicated the amount was not doable the school redacted my acceptance and gave my spot to someone else… so before you put all your time, money, and effort into this school-don’t. I cannot speak for the program itself and I’ve heard nothing but great things about the instructor… but at the end of the day that doesn’t matter if Concorde is “for-profit” and not for education.Emilee Gestes

Please do not go to this school. The instructors are very disrespectful and do not teach anything. The purpose is to fail you so that you can pay again since you have to retake the whole semester. The first term had a 30 students class and it went down to like 12 of us. This term everyone is failing so far because the term 2 teacher is random and does not go by the book.There are around 5 students in term 5 which is the last term and most of them have repeated at least one term. I am looking into other programs. Stay away, it is easy to get into the program, but you won't learn anything and NCLEX passing rates are low according to the instructors.Kukita Arocha

The best instructor in the world. She specializes and focuses on one on one teaching. Jenny makes sure you can save a life before walking out the door. She is very professional and her class instructions are precise and her syllabus is intricate yet easy to follow. Register today and save a life.Eboni Yazmine Feliciano

Today we had the CPR training in our office and it was so fantastic! Jennifer and Myrna were very engaging and interactive to help us stay up to date on the modern CPR standards. I definitely recommend their services for your business if your company needs training!Jackson B

Great course. The instructor really has a passion for what she does and does it well! Will learn a ton and the nicest dummies you will have worked. That’s saying a lot considering myself with the bunch of years of CPR training I’ve completed.Jacob Kuruvilla

ACLS class date: 05/04/22. The class was informative and interesting so I will definitely return to this location when it’s time for my ACLS renewal. Kudos to James Shiplet (instructor) for making the class engaging and providing a relaxed environment that was conducive to learning. Amber was observing for the day and will make a great instructor in the future. I also got my BLS at this location and it’s always a pleasant experience which is why I will continue to recommend it to all of my friends and coworkers.A A (Anonymous123)

RC Health Services and everyone who works there is awesome! Especially James Shiplet who taught my EMT-B course. Couldn’t have asked for a better instructor. Really kept the class interesting and fun.John Orama

I have been on a few lunch and learns now with Mr. James Shiplet and he is always very helpful with the content that he is teaching. I highly recommend RC Health Services for any EMS certification!Lindsay Price

I’m a local Austin nurse for over the last decade, one of many professions that require among perhaps others, basic life support certification by the American Heart Association, and every two years I go to this facility for it. It’s quick, it’s fast, they’re knowledgeable, and as someone who procrastinates down to the wire of needing to renew my BLS, there is always a class that I can sign up tomorrow (in my experience). If for nothing else, add their contact and website to your notes app. If you need a cert, check these guys out. I no longer need to keep ACLS up to date, so I couldn’t speak to that. But if you take BLS often, then you’ll know these certs can be certain degrees of tedious. I’d say over the years, I’ve never complained about that with these guys and gals.Ken Dait

Very helpful to have a place to go to for CPR renewal vs call individual CPR certified trainers who are hard to contact or don’t respond. My only complaint is was it was a little hard to find when I was following directions from GPS. I missed the exit from 183 then once I got there, there are multiple offices so I had to walk around trying to find building A from where I parked at building E. Maybe you all can provide specific directions?? Zee was a great instructor. Thank you for your helping in getting my renewal and thanks RC Health for providing this service.K Ham

Awesome instructors! I got my BLS cert and feel so prepared to use my skills. The instructors are so helpful with guiding you along, whether you’re a pro or newbie. Everyone was so kind and make sure to address any questions or concerns you have, even if they need to go over it multiple times Talon and Z were awesome instructors and I appreciated the course I received.Cara Crocker

Karina was a great instructor! She gave great tips on how to improve your CPR and you can tell she was very experienced. I also enjoyed how the CPR mannequins lit up based on how well you were performing CPR. Compared to my previous CPR class where I only completed the skills portion in person, I enjoyed this class more (completely in person) because you got more experience performing CPR and I felt more confident performing CPR afterwards.April Peterson

Signed up for my CPR-BLS class recommended by my employer and Brian was our instructor today. Must say from attending several classes before, Brian was most engaging and allowed us his personal experiences to learn from. Definitely a good source for CPR class, they let you borrow the book to follow through class as well as study sheet to know important notes and be able to pay attention. Will be coming back here for next renewal! 👩🏻‍⚕️Gabbii Cortez

Much informative session.Our instructor Ms.Amber Grenshaw was really friendly and knowledgeable ,she helped us with each step of the way. They offer high quality videos and equipments. BLS is a must for everyone..had a great experience.Sanmayi Jayaprakash

The course content is excellent and Professor Juddson is awesome. Being an online course, it was quite the surprise to see the level of response from Texas EMS School whenever I had a question or need. They were flexible and worked with me on getting my rotations completed. As long as you stay on track and meet the deadlines that are given you, the course goes by pretty quickly. Don't think for a minute that it's easy though. Be prepared to commit 3-4 hours per chapter and be challenged. I learned that the variables that present themselves with each case is unique and can have more than one solution. Learning to navigate through the physiology and pathophysiology to help the patient is very challenging and rewarding. If you are looking for an online EMT school that allows you to work and maintain a social/family life, this is what you are looking for.Kevin Murphree

I had a fantastic experience with Axon Education. Their program allows the student to complete assignments, quizes and tests on their own terms. The coursework is challenging and fun. The support from the professors is amazing. I was able to work ahead and finish the course sooner than expected. Yes, it's a difficult course if you don't put the effort into it. But they design the exams to be difficult so that the student is fully prepared to take the National Registry of EMT exam. I passed the NREMT on my first try, and it's due to the rigorous nature of the Axon Education course, and thanks to the professors who endured endless questions from me and always helped to ensure I fully understood the concepts. I couldn't be happier.Laura Mildon

This is an amazing school they have really made it possible for me to: 1.) continue my education. 2.) believe in myself again!!!! Prior to axon education I was a criminal justice major Double minor in psychology & child development At Tarleton State University I spent over $30k there unfortunately I jumped the gun and couldn’t afford everything I signed up for so ended up getting nothing. It just so crazy with the small amount of money it cost me to continue my education through axon education I’ll be able to change lives for the better and continue my Education even further into A-EMT and possibly even a Paramedic, with yalls continued support Thank the entire axon education team for everything y’all do!Donald Cohen

Pope and Crystal at Fort Worth were both awesome. Between the two of them, we got a lot of the “by the books” way of doing things, and the actual way things will play out while on the job. We got plenty of stories and lived scenarios from Pope that covered everything from patient treatment to self care, and Crystal hammered in solid strategies like PENMAN and GLXABCD that really helped with the medical and trauma assessments. Overall, much higher quality instruction and investment from our instructors than I expected for just three days. Would come back to learn from them any time.Alec Rigik

Many thanks for my instructor Mr. Kris’s Evert Silverio for his training for the PALS course yesterday 25 th May He is very Good in his teaching technique and made sure that trainees got the skills and knowledge especially with the new 2020 guidelines I thank him for his efforts and wish him to continue providing the same to healthcare team members. I strongly recommend him and will give a 5 star ⭐️ rating ThanksVenkataramana Garikiparthy

The instructor kept our attention with his quick WIT and HUMOR. Also, his verbal presentation style was well versed and easy to follow. He welcomed questions and discussions about any topic. He didn’t teach or present down to us, rather along side us as colleagues. I FULLY recommend courses with him as an instructor.Bryan Kelly

This place was very professional and well run. I love that I could look up the schedule online and sign up online. The CPR dummies were very nice and well kept. The instructor was very professional and knowledgeable, especially compared to other CPR places I've been to. I will definitely be coming back to renew my BLS and ACLS here in the future.Paula S.

Went for my NRP renewal and it was a blast. Information provided was up-to-date and easy to understand. Hands on practice increased my comfort level with tools/ supplies used. Thorough, yet quick. Would definitely recommend. They also offer other medical certification training.Lola

Are is sooooo awesome!! Very knowledgeable and fun!! Very informative and made the class enjoyable, condor and interesting. I was nervous taking the class but she was great!! Even my class mates were great! I will be back to see Ade. Thank you Ade!!Aulbrie Drummond

I definitely recommend this school, I started in August of 2019 hopeful that I would get my foot into the medical field and that’s exactly what they’ve helped me accomplish thus far, besides that I had set my mind to come to this school do my work, learn and go home and leave it at that but the staff at this school is incredible. I wanted to just get by here at PCI and go about my life and on my way but they really do care about you here and are very welcoming. Starting with my advisor Ali she made me feel so comfortable, when getting into something new you feel overwhelmed or scared but Ali made me feel like I could do it and helped me get started and my financial advisor Serena also helped me feel more than welcome. They encouraged me into student council and like I mentioned I was not interested in doing anything here at PCI besides my work and they pushed me to be more involved and I can’t thank them enough! They are truly a great team and they have great communication skills definitely the kind of people you want as your staff or to help you get your career started. I’ve found myself in tough situations while attending PCI we all know life can get crazy and they have always been there to help me with what I needed, and to check up on me and make sure I’m in class! Thank you guys for being who y’all are! They deserve some great recognition from PCI. This is the minimum thank you I can extend to them!! All the staff at PCI are great, friendly and funny especially Ms Taylor she’s the bomb.com, come attend PCI in Dallas and you won’t regret it!Alma Avril

My experience at PCI Health Training Center, has been more than what I could’ve ever imagined. The campus is full of genuine people from the students, to the instructors, and especially the staff. My advisor Diana, has made a tremendous impact on my journey here. She is helpful, sincere, compassionate, and always willing to listen and guide her students to the best of her ability. She shows +1 service towards her students as well as her fellow colleagues. Seeing an optimistic, always smiling, genuine face is always so refreshing. Her as mine and many others’ advisor was truly a blessing. She is what pushes us to come everyday with her above and beyond care for her students. Although, she has made an extreme impact on my journey I wouldn’t have even been able to attend and meet such great people without the incredible help of my financial aid advisor, Serena Gulam. Serena has been the most helpful in finding what suited me best and milking every last penny to help me attend such an amazing school. She is very determined and builds a great bond with her students as well. Serena remains patient and helpful during our most stressful process of enrollment. Financial Aid can be such a hassle, but if you’re lucky enough to get such a young, intelligent mind like Serena’s, you’re sure to have the best outcome with her! These two advisors together were a dynamic duo, you’d be blessed to have them on your side during your enrollment process!Janika Alvarado

The review statement is to share my experience at this organization and that is what I will try my best to do starting with the instructors. I completed my medical assisting program in March of 2021. When I started I had been working at a hospital for about four years so I knew a few things medical jargon and such. However some of my classmates knew next to nothing and most had just finished high school. The instructors took time to meet us at our current level and help us excel. They laid a foundation for us to learn in multiple ways and was very hands on through out the complete process. They really helped in any way they could and prepared us for our future positions. Now the business office well I am not sure. If you actual want to work in the medical field take the initial job they give you and get experience if you do not have any. Then while working find a better job for your future. if you have experience while in your externship hit the ground running looking for you a good job that will better suit your needs. This school gets a bad rep because of the after school work balance. IF YOU WANT TO SUCCEED YOU WILL! DO NOT TAKE ANYTHING AND ADVOCATE FOR THE PLACEMENT YOU WANT! and Ms. Carnes is not going to change so take her with a grain of salt finish school and live your best life.Satiana Tanner

If you are ever given the pleasure of having Sean Holt as your instructor, I highly suggest that you soak up every opportunity given to learn whatever you can from him. He is the most humble and incredible representation of what any EMS provider should strive to be. I will never forget the values Holt taught us and the mark he left on my new journey towards kindness and giving back to people who need it most. Thanks to him I was gifted the knowledge that I can now implement, changing the world one day at a time.Keala Apuna

I certainly would not recommend. Tried reaching out to set up a class and give them ongoing business. COO, Dan Koziol, promised to call back several times and never did. Multiple emails and calls to other staff have not been returned as well. Totally unprofessional and zero customer service.Isaac Hersh

Wonderful and helpful attitudes from the front desk and instructor! They are accommodating and understanding when it comes to arrival situation (being a bit late due to traffic). I would definitely be back because the process and class and test were simple and easy to follow.griselda soto

Great academy for the price. I went through the hybrid academy, doing all the book work online, then coming in for a 2-week skills session. The instructors want you to succeed, so don't get mad at them when they have you repeat skills over and over again (like the 60-second drill, inspecting your PPE, etc). The owner used to work for the TCFP, so he knows what the TCFP is looking for when it comes to skills and testing. The drill field is on the east end of Sulphur Springs, and only takes 5 minutes or so to get there (it's off of CR 3502, behind the Goodwill Industries distribution center). Study the material, get familiar with the skills, and don't take short-cuts; you have to know the material in order to pass the skills, pass the class, and pass the TCFP Exam. Most of your classmates will be housed at Brinker VFD (Hopkins County Station #12), which is a decent place to unwind at the end of the class day and get some studying done.Mark Cross

I had a blast attending this fire academy! The luxury of taking the didactic portion online and still being able to work full time was perfect for me. The 2 week onsite skills session was far more impactful than I had imagined it would be. I cannot brag on the instructors enough!! The instructors at Fire In Texas truly enjoy teaching. More importantly, they care about each student individually and making sure everyone genuinely understands the topics; didactic and hands on. Teaching is very clearly NOT just a job for them. They want to see each one of us succeed, both in the classroom and in real life, and they do whatever it takes to see that through. I will absolutely be returning to Fire In Texas to take more classes as I advance in my career.Kat Howard

5 Stars hands down! Greatest experience I could have asked for. Fantastic owners and instructors that are a wealth of knowledge, really care about the students and their end goal/success, and push everyone that comes through their program(s) to succeed and reach their potential! Very reasonably priced. I completed both Onsite Fire Academy, and EMT school. Passed my National Registry easily on my first try and I am already interviewing for fire department(s). Make an investment in your future go sign up today! Greatest career in the world! Thank you Fire in Texas.Jonathan Barth

I attended EMTS for both my EMT and medic training several years back. I was nervous- I was the oldest one in my EMT class (27 at the time) and thought maybe I had made a mistake starting my training so much later in life. Dead wrong. After 1 day in class I knew I had made the right decision. The instructors at EMTS were there for me anytime I needed help. Day, night, before class, after class, between classes, everything. I did my homework on schools in the area and EMTS was the best there was. This wasn’t some mediocre trade school full of students and staff who don’t really want to be there. The people at this school have a genuine passion for EMS. They work hard to be sure the students that walk through their doors have that same passion. Make no mistake they care about you and your education more than you can imagine, but they will show you some tough love. EMS is not a career for anyone who cannot handle the brutal realities of the field. Many go into EMS with the thought that it is exciting, full of adrenaline packed situations, and great stories for later. While all of this is true, there is also going to be that patient with Alzheimer’s who wandered out of their home and fell down and you’re now spending anywhere from 1 minute to 3 hours with them just to get their name and birthday because they are scared and crying. There will be that SIDS call or that child abuse call. There will be inmates you treat that will go out of their way to get under your skin even as you’re trying to help them. EMTS works hard so that by the time you graduate, those who did not have the passion for it have been weeded out and you are 200% prepared both physically and mentally. That might sound a bit harsh, but would you want your loved one being attended to by an EMT or medic who didn’t care or didn’t have the best training possible? I have worked in various areas since graduating: ER, MICU, correction/tactical medicine, and mental health. My training put me miles ahead of most of the EMS personnel I encounter. Even medics with years more of experience or RNs- many many times I have had to step in and correct or take charge when I was not the lead for a patient. I have emailed my medic instructor numerous times to thank him for teaching us how to thrive. If you attend school here you will quickly see on your rotations how EMTS students are favored. I got to see and assist with A LOT of really cool stuff simply because I’d proved myself not to be an idiot and willing to step up. So many students on my rotations looked like deer in headlights. When you get into the field you will have people’s LIVES in your hands. I do not understand why schools and students choose mediocrity for something so important. This is not an easy program. It will push you and it’s tough. But they give you every tool you need to get through it and then some. EMTS is very hands on- they want to be sure you are thoroughly prepared. By the time you graduate you actually feel confident in yourself and your skill set which is such a great feeling. Anyone considering a career in EMS will thank themselves for giving EMTS a shot.Gaylen Grenier

This is the best training school you will find in my opinion. I went to EMTS with absolutely no prior emergency medicine training or education and gained an immense amount of knowledge and experience. More than I could have expected. I graduated EMTS prepared for a career as a first responder on a level that is heights above what other schools offer. Even if your goal lies in some other medical field, I would recommend this school, as they teach outstanding medicine that is applicable all around. I had a good amount of apprehension as the NREMT exam approached due to a fear of the unknown, but it was an absolute breeze given what I had been taught at EMTS. There was no difficulty at all. I was worried for nothing, because I had been prepared prior to taking it. This is not to say that you will not work. You WILL put in work or you will not graduate. Rightfully so. Identify your problem areas, work on them, and prioritize. Everything you need to succeed is given to you. The instructors are extremely approachable with any questions you may have (even Tom in his own way), the lectures are way above par, and the hands on training is excellent. In addition, take constructive criticism as just that – constructive. Use it to better your skills and knowledge as they are trying to teach you. Don’t be soft and you will emerge from this school a very well trained first responder. I cannot endorse this school enough. It was a difficult yet phenomenal experience.Michael Cook

I took this EMT course with not much interest in the medical field but knew I needed the certification to pursue my fire career. After the first couple classes I was pretty stressed out thinking I wouldn't be able to keep up, seeing as I have 2 businesses of my own to keep going as well. I quickly became overwhelmed and struggled to find time for homework and studying but as the course went on and things started connecting, I started having fun learning it. Tom teaches far more in depth than most instructors do, I assume, but his way of teaching helps you understand how the body works, and how things are connected. This helps you understand what you are learning, rather than just trying to remember words from the book. This course was difficult but if you put in the time and just pay attention, you will come out much further ahead in the end. I passed the NREMT on my first try with the minimum amount of questions which was a pretty big deal to me seeing as I started this course with very little interest. I now have full intentions to move on to paramedic which is also something I never thought I would want to do. Tom is very fair, straight forward, and tells you how to pass. You just need to listen and put in the time. I highly recommend EMTSTyler Draws

The people who work for this particular location are great. My first instructor was okay, but I didn't feel like I got enough information from them and had to seek alternative resources (which they encourage) in order to understand. My second instructor, while new to instructing, was phenomenal. I got a lot of real-world information from him. The coursework isn't what I thought. The courses are brief and I didn't feel like they spent enough time going over the intricacies of each subject. I thought that this was a more hands-on system to go through the motions of IT work. This seemed purely informational and even my second instructor seemed to struggle with conveying the coursework without showing us. Cost is somewhat reasonable, though I feel like I could have used primarily online resources and took the certification exams without using student loans. While I don't regret my education at this school, mostly because of my second instructor, I'm not sure I can recommend this school as a solution for the acquisition of certifications. Additionally, you still have to go to an outside testing facility to get certifications.Jason Hille

I had an excellent experience overall with CCI Training Center-Dallas Campus. My Instructor, Dr. Tamara Haskins is not only adept at teaching Information and Technology related courses but also very helpful in every way possible to students for better learning purposes. The staff is awesome and so is the education centre itself. I would recommend CCI Training Centre to anyone anyday.Monique Mordi

I’m studying MA class at cci training center the staff always very nice and helpful , also Ms. Frazier so knowledgable and helpful, also I have to mention that they work with you a lot I change my class schedule 2 Tim’s and Mr. Weber the director’s off the school . He was always fine with that and find alternative class Thank you for everybody working in cci schoolA A

This is by far the best accelerated program available. From the time you arrive, they make you feel special. Each instructor has their own unique way of explaining the material. They share stories and techniques from years of real world experience. For someone like me, the visualization of actual events was much easier to understand than attempting to visualize the scenarios provided in the book. Not only would I recommend Texas EMS Academy, but I would strongly suggest it. Nowhere else will you get genuine people who actually care if you succeed. I passed my national registry on the first attempt less than a week after the class ended. Although I could have named everyone that was so amazing, it would be a disservice to anyone that I may have forgotten simply because of how outstanding every single person was. If you make the right decision in choosing to attend, you will not regret it.Nick Scott

I can’t recommend this academy enough! They make the 14 days of straight class work and clinicals more than manageable and make sure that you only learn the information that you actually will need to know in the future. The instructors made class fun and were all more than amazing!! They all have experience and again make sure and only teach you valuable information but also make class fun and enjoyable. I passed the NREMT on the first try and this course made sure I was well-prepared!Erin Best

I want to Thank Texas EMS Academy Staff and Instructors for the hard work and dedication they put in during the 2/28/22-3/13/22 2 week EMT course. Instruction was definitely well taught by highly experienced and knowledgeable Paramedics who take thier personal time during thier off days to teach. I want everyone to know I Passed my NREMT on the very first try. Highly suggest and recommend Texas EMS Academy to anyone wanting to pursue a career in EMS. Thank you all once again…Mark Escamilla

I went into this school not knowing how to drive an 18 wheeler, Mr. Sam and Mr. Todd  had the knowledge & patience that I don't think I could have gotten from any other training program, every day I saw an improvement in mine and the other students knowledge, we each had different areas where we were struggling and they helped each of us in that specific area, our skills behind the wheel were improving each passing day. They understand how important it is for each one of their students to obtain their CDL License and will be with you side by side until you obtain it. Talking about the administrative side of the school they worked with me since the time I went to ask information until I got scheduled my driving test. If you want your CDL this is the place to go. From start to finish they provide everything you need to succeed. I can't say enough nice things about this school! I was able to drive 3 different trucks and i got plenty of driving time, maneuvers lessons and every single day we were going over pretrip.  I would totally recommend this school.Nancy Cilos

Please don't let this people steal your money. My husband paid $2500 advance for his cdl training with this people and he was not accepted for an unknown reason and this people stole him $1500 he was only refunded $1000. If they have some years in this bussiness they are suppose to know who can and who can't get their cdl. I think they stole his money on purpose . Very unprofessional we had to wait a month to get the incomplete refund . This people are hungry for money they don't care how much people struggles to save some money . Very dissappointed and definetly filing complaint and reporting this place to the better business bureau and other places so they stop stealing peoples money. Bunch of crooks.Maria Rubio

If you don’t want to get your CDL . If don’t want get into a money making trade. If you’re not willing to go extra mile for a better future. Don’t go to MT Training Center. The staff is amazing they’re always willing to help you and guard you into your life changing careers. I would like to think Charles Bush,Samuel Eden, and all CdL instructors for helping/preparing us for a better future. I really want to thank Charles Bush for coaching me and guiding me from day one. Again if you don’t want too learn or be Taught don’t go to MT Training Center. The will try to motivate you from start to finish Thank You to all the Staff and Instructors for giving us the knowledge, and drive for a better FutureCarlos Livar

I have now taken a total of three different programs from the PERCOM organization and each of them have completely surpassed my every expectation. As a seasoned healthcare professional with over 15 years of experience, I have been fortunate enough to have access to some of the best medical instruction programs in the world. PERCOM rivals these programs and delivers upon their promise to their students: a clinically-rich set of EMS programs with unmatched instructor expertise. Jane, the Program Director, goes out of her way to ensure each student's success and is not afraid to hold you accountable. She truly wants the best for every student and graduate and the program goes above and beyond to prepare each student for the rigors of modern EMS practice. I have been continuously impressed with the engagement of the PERCOM faculty with each course, their approach to customer service, and how practical they make every aspect of your coursework. While there are many EMS educational programs available in the US, I can confidently say that PERCOM is the program for those that truly want to be an evidence-based EMS provider and deliver clinical excellence to their patients. PERCOM offers unique flexibility thru an online and hybrid approach, and then supplements this with localized skills testing and clinical experiences. I have also been impressed with the interactivity of each course that I have taken as it's apparent that the program faculty go out of their way to ensure that you are not just competent in each program objective, but equally important, they want to ensure that you are truly successful in the field. My instructors Gene, Rick, and Gabriel have all been top notch. This level of support, engagement, and learning is not often observed in EMS programs, and PERCOM is the best in class in my opinion. I would strongly recommend this program to any aspiring EMS professionals or those that are wishing to upgrade the current scope of practice. Patients deserve our very best effort, and PERCOM ensures that you are confident, competent, and compassionate in clinical care delivery.Dr. Hudson Garrett Jr

I was blessed with the opportunity to attend a paramedic course online. I would not have been able to travel to school from the rural area that I live in. The instructors were great and always willing to guide me through something I didn't understand. The skills instructors were equally as awesome! Jane Dinsmore was super helpful in that she gave me multiple extensions throughout my schooling. However, the clinical portion of the course was the most complicated. It was the worst schooling experience that I've ever had. This course is unlike any others, in that you have to pass the didactic portion of the course before entering clinical's. That is too much time out of school and makes NR testing that much harder. The clinical coordinator was unorganized. I had to resend clinical paperwork multiple times because she would claim that she never received them. I waited 2+ months to get into clinicals. The plan was to attend Abilene Hospital. Tammy stated she just wasn't hearing from them. After 2 months, I was informed that they no longer had a clinical coordinator at that hospital. When applying for clinicals at the second site, I was told that Tammy was waiting on a response. I called the hospital myself and found that their clinical coordinator had quit. I then took it upon myself to find out who the clinical coordinator was. After multiple failed scheduling attempts and confusion, I eventually went through the sites coordinator to set up clinicals myself. I eventually worked up the nerve to report to Jane Dinsmore that I was having issues with Tammy, it was made clear that I was the one being "unprofessional." Not having clarified how I was being unprofessional, I was left to deal with it on my own. While I truly appreciate the one's who supported me through this process. I only hope that these comments would help to re-evaluate the way your clinical portion of the course works.ashley A

Excellent course. I did my paramedic through percom because I couldn’t quit working to go to school full time. I had 2 major life events, that caused me to have to put my schooling on hold. Percom allowed me to do this, then pick back up where I left off. I did this course during the height of covid, when hospitals simply wouldn’t accept students. Jane, and the clinical coordinator worked with me to get other clinical sites set up. I finished the course, I passed the paramedic written, and the skills fist time go. My national registry cut off at 82 questions. If I didn’t go through percom I wouldn’t be a paramedic today. I was able to get hired at one of the sites I used for clinicals a service that is a revered and aggressive service in the Texas Panhandle. If you make it through the course, you will pass national registry. If you log in and do the course work as recommended you will finish.Dillon Beach
