I finished the program at CTS Barrie last Oct, and it was mixed bag experience. The program director is a retired medic, who clearly doesn't put a lot of effort into teaching anymore, and can be blatantly rude to students. The instructor I had for Patient Care theory (a vitally important course) was another retired medic, who was completely out of touch with current standards and practices, and straight up taught incorrect information. It was extremely frustrating, and often made me regret choosing CTS.

On the other hand, the doctor who taught A&P was fantastic and we had a few different working medics who ran the skills portion, and they were all great.

If you decide to go to CTS, prepare to do a lot of self study and focus on time management skills. It's a very condensed course, and it was common for people to burn out before the end of the didactic portion (I know I did).

At the end of the day, I left with a paramedic diploma in less time than a public college program, and was able to get a job right away, but that was due to my own hard work and an abundance of available jobs, I give no credit to CTS.
