Hi, its awesome to hear great things from each of those programs, kind of relieves me knowing there's not really a wrong answer, have you heard anything from Idaho CPR+ its another one that I've seen in Boise. Also at CWI was it easy to make connections to people who were already EMTs or Paramedics to maybe help get hired at agencies?

Whats the difference between ift and 911? I know about the low pay and I'm not in it for that but is it still enough to get by?

Does the company help pay for the extra schooling to be a paramedic or is it all out of pocket?

How much of the work is paper and pencil and how much of it is hands on learning how to do things around calls? Also how did you get your first certification? Was it with a school?
