The Paramedic program is accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Allied Health Education Programs (www.caahep.org) upon the recommendation of the Committee on Accreditation of Educational Programs for the Emergency Medical Services Professions (CoAEMSP) (www.coaemsp.org). In addition, the Collin County Community College District EMT and Paramedic programs are in compliance with the Texas Department of State Health Services (www.dshs.texas.gov).
Our EMS education program combines state-of-the-art equipment with academic and field experienced instructors to provide a broad knowledge base for effective Emergency Medical Services. This ensures that the students will possess the skills and knowledge necessary to perform in a variety of emergency situations once their education is completed.
EMS training at the Paramedic level is only for the distinct and exceptional student. It requires dedication, discipline, physical and mental fitness.
