KE5EHI Posted November 17, 2006 Posted November 17, 2006 I've been trying to find an EMT-I class somewhere in northeast Oklahoma or Northwest Arkansas. Does anyone know of somewhere in that area that still offers it? Thanks!
Ridryder 911 Posted November 18, 2006 Posted November 18, 2006 Did you check with their State Dept of Health?.. I am sure they can tell you since they have to issue a CAN number prior to classes.... R/r 911
Ghettomedic351 Posted November 18, 2006 Posted November 18, 2006 Well....Good Luck on finding an EMT-I class in Arkansas, the last I heard they were not going to test the I-99 and they are SLOWLY letting the old intermediates Die out, I have a Friend or two down at the State Division of EMS and I will try and confirm this for you, But I dont think you will have much luck in the land of opportunity.
jeremybright Posted November 18, 2006 Posted November 18, 2006 I'm an instructor in Arkansas and we still teach I-85 I also go to the training commitee meetings and cancelling EMT-I cert was discussed and there is no plan to discontinue EMT-I cert at this time there is also no imediate plan to change to the 99 standard either. The problem is there aren't many employment opportunities for I's in AR. If you check the Division's website there is a list of all training sites in AR http://www.healthyarkansas.com/ems/ems_p3.html#Training
KE5EHI Posted November 20, 2006 Author Posted November 20, 2006 Thanks for the info guys. I've also been discussing brining in an EMT-I instructor for a small group of us if we can get one to do it. One of the local suburb fire depts did that not very long ago.
daniel h Posted December 22, 2006 Posted December 22, 2006 there's going to be a EMT-I class @ pioneer technology center in febuary in ponca city,ok. it's about a hour from tulsa, the instructor is a very good instructor, he's the one that taught my basic class, if you are still interested in the class you will need to speak with a molly k. @ the school send me a private message and i will give you her number and email, there still needing 1-3 more people so they can hold the class.
Scaramedic Posted December 23, 2006 Posted December 23, 2006 According to the state website a course is going to start on 1-20-07, one day a week (Sat) thru 5-21-07 at Indian Capital Tech in Stillwell. Might be another option for ya. OK EMS Peace, Marty

I live in Edmond but would have no problem commuting to Tulsa a couple nights a week, even so I would like to get on EMSA in the Tulsa area upon graduating.
Breck Posted March 15, 2007 Posted March 15, 2007 Heard there may be one at Moore Norman Tech. Anyone else hear this?
