Doubtful. I've never seen an EMS which didn't require it.
The requirements to become an EMT are different for each state. Continuing education classes and time spent in an ER or ambulance is required. Total training is usually between 35 and 55 hours.
it is a person that fights fires and does medical paramedic skills EDIT: EMS means Emergency Medical Services. Does not have to be paramedic, can be an EMT which is a less trained level.
A lot of colleges offer EMT certification courses. One of the best ways to know how to get trained in your area is to contacts the local EMS agency in your town.
The flow goes as follows: Certified First Responder, Emergency medical Technician- Basic, EMT- Intermediate, and EMT-Paramedic.
It is an extension of the Medical Director of the EMS Agencies' license.
No classes have to be taken in High School to be an EMT but once you are old enough to become a volunteer or member of a local Fire and Rescue Company you have to take EMT/EMS Academy courses to be a cleared professional.
