Advanced EMT Class
The Danville Area Training Center (DATC) and Danville Community College Advanced Emergency Medical Technician (AEMT) started on January 22, 2024. The class will run into July 2024. The next class should start in January of 2025. The information below about the current class gives you an idea of how our AEMT Class runs. Watch for information about the 2025 class in October of this year.
The class will be from 6:00 PM to 10:00 PM on Monday and Wednesday nights and is scheduled to end in July of 2024. There will also be four Saturday classes on the syllabus. We are also opening a Thursday daytime session as an additional time frame to complete the class. For example, if you can attend the Monday evening class but not Wednesday, you can attend the afternoon Thursday session to complete the week's AEMT Classes. All classroom instruction will take place at the DATC located at 630 Randolph Street.
Classroom attendance must remain at 85% or more for class completion. 48 hours of hospital clinical hours and 48 hours of prehospital clinical time are also required for the class. Prerequisites for the AEMT Class are a valid CPR card (start of class and certification test). You also must be 18 years old on or before the start date of the class. There are also requirements that must be met to complete the 48 hours of hospital clinical time.
Tuition for the class will be $1055 per student. With the support of the FastForward program at DCC, the cost will be no more than $550. DCC looks at household income to assist students who meet certain income requirements to determine final costs for the class. Costs include the following: textbook, Platinum Planner with EMT testing, background check, drug screen, and two AEMT shirts. The class will be limited to 20 students. Interviews will be conducted in early January to establish membership in the class. Interview times will be assigned after the application deadline. Class tuition will be due once the final cost per student is determined by DCC.
Registration for the 2025 AEMT Class will be announced in October or November!
