hello all. my name is Greg and i am a Navy hospital corpsman, i will be getting out of the navy around 2012/2013. i am currently in okinawa, japan and will be leaving the island in dec 2010... i am currently a EMT-B and am about to go TAD to the camp firehouse as a EMT on the ambulance... my plan when i get out is to attend paramedic school... i plan on getting a associates degree, i know i can get a cert, but the way the medical field is advancing, i think i should better myself and just get the degree. besides the military is paying for it anyway... for anybody who is prior/or still active duty... will the navy allow me to attend a paramedic school while on active duty??? also what classes (online) or others... should i take to better prepare myself for the paramedic course... what pre reqs do paramedic schools usually want... (AP, CHEM, BIO, MICROBIO... what else??? another question... my EMT-B cert expires in march 2010, can i submit a request to NREMT to postpone my renewal until i get back from overseas, or will they just say no and when i get back i will have to go through another emt-b course again...
thank you all
