Randolph Community College Launches Online Classes for EMS Professionals

Beginning April 15, Randolph Community College will launch online emergency medical services courses for continuing education credit.

The College will offer a variety of online EMS courses for emergency medical technicians and paramedics, including Surgical Airways, EMS Preceptor, The Challenged Patient, Intraosseous Infusions, OB & GYN Emergencies, Seizures, and more. Courses will carry continuing education credit on an hour for hour basis. Kelly Heath, RCC's director of occupational extension, said the benefits of the online classes include no set meeting times; no required campus attendance, unless course is flagged as a hybrid; 24/7 access to the course; and topics individualized on the transcript.
