Con-Ed: Pittsburgh Area

[NBfire841]

I am a new EMT-B in the Pittsburgh area (Beaver County). Anyone know of good Con-Ed classes coming up? The only one I know of is at Mercy Hospital every third Thursday of the month.

1. Check Center for Emergency Medicine web site (http://centerem.org), they have con-ed classes (EVOC, ITLS, etc.) every once in a while.
2. Check you local fire academy; if you are interested in rescue or hazmat classes, some of them can give you con-ed credits in category "other".
3. Every spring there is EMS Update weekend at Seven Springs. A lot of good con-ed classes, some of them are full weeks or months before it starts, so you may need to register in advance.
