It depends what state they are certified in and what courses are required. Most paramedics have training in PHTLS (pre hospital trauma life support), PALS (pediatric advanced life support), ACLS (advanced cardiac life support), and CPR. Most companies also require training in EVOC (emergency vehicle operation) as well as some mandated OSHA courses.

You need you EMT certificate, then your CPR certificate, then you will need your EMT-B certificate and then you can chose to up it to intermediate and then you can go for your EMT exam and hopefully pass.
