Paramedic class starting in Morehead Advanced Emergency Training Associates is pleased to announce our fifth Paramedic Training Program. The tentative start date is December 9th. The class will be held every Monday and Thursday from 5pm until 10pm in Morehead. There will also be a "skills day" to be held on the third or fourth Saturday of each month. The duration of the lecture and skills portion will be approximately 12 months. The five hundred hour field internship will follow graduation if all of the clinical objectives have been met. We have multiple clinical sites to choose from and over 15 different internship sites around the area. Applications Are Currently Being Accepted for admission into the 2002-2003 Morehead Paramedic Program. You may submit your application prior to the entrance exam by sending it along with $35 & copies of your: EMT, CPR, & Drivers License to: A.E.T. For more information on the requirements to become a Paramedic check out www.kbems.org as specified in 202 KAR 7:405 Cost/Financial Information We are attempting to acquire a financial aid program, and should have more information on the program at the entrance exams. We are also inquiring about two different scholarship programs for EMS personnel. The cost of the program is $2500 unless paid on or before the first day of class, which would receive a $200 discount for early payment. The cost increases thereafter depending on the length of installments required. Every student must have a minimum $500 down payment at the commencement of the course. A.E.T. will finance the course with a signed promissory note and a payroll deduction form with the students’ employer for a period no longer than ten months. If the course is paid in full within the first sixty days there will be no installment fees ($50 per month) added to the tuition. Example 1: if a student pays $500 down, there minimum monthly payment is $250 for ten months for a total of $3000.00. Example 2: If it takes a student six months to pay for the course in full with the minimum $500 down payment the total cost will be $2800—5 months $2750, 4 months $2700, three months $2650, two months $2500. Entrance Exam: There will be two entrance exams. The first will be held on Tuesday October 29th @ 4:00pm the second exam will be held Saturday November 2nd @ 3:30pm. Both exams will be held at the designated lecture site, which is the AHEC Building in Morehead (see attached map for directions).
