Got my EMT ticket as well and looking at a local medic program. They offer both an associates and a certificate program. The certificate program tosses out the english composition I and II and a few other classes I've taken when I got my bachelors. It basically focuses on the medical part it's 14 classes versus 25 classes for the associates. The shorter schooling time frame is what really interests me.
Living in Massachusetts would an employer in ME, NH, or MA (I can easily commute to any of those states for work) look down on a certificate versus the associates for someone who has a BA in another field (non-medical). My goal is to work part-time/under 35 hours a week as I have a very flexible full time job and I would like to teach emergency medicine at some point once I am experienced. So those are my long term goals at least.
Thanks for any feed back!
