Uwchlan Ambulance Corps offers various a variety of certification, non-certification, and specialty courses through the American Heart Association (AHA), American Safety & Health Institute (ASHI), National Registry of Emergency Medical Technicians (NREMT), the National Association of Emergency Medical Technicians (NAEMT), International Trauma Life Support (ITLS) and the Volunteer Firemen’s Insurance Services (VFIS).
We offer a combination of blended online courses and in-person classes.
BLENDED COURSES: Flexible learning anywhere, anytime! Blended courses allow you to complete the didactic portion of a course online and at your own pace. Upon completion of that portion of the course, the student(s) then complete a skills session at a predetermined date. If a group of 6 or more providers in your office is interested in this option, we can schedule a skills-day at your location or ours. (Travel fees may apply outside of our service area)
IN-PERSON COURSES: In-person, classroom-based courses are conducted entirely in either our classroom or at your business’ off-site location (space restrictions do apply) and include both didactic-lecturing and skills practice, when indicated. (Travel fees may apply outside of our service area)

Please view Healthcare Provider Courses for any of these options.
