The University of Iowa Hospitals & Clinics EMSLRC Paramedic Program is designed to educate individuals currently certified and licensed at the EMT or AEMT level to provide advanced emergency medical care and transportation to victims of serious illness or injury. This course is nationally accredited and follows the 2009 National EMS Education Standards. Successful completion leads to eligibility to sit for the national certification examinations and subsequent state licensure as a Paramedic.
This three-semester program consists of two semesters of classroom training with a minimum of 284 hours of supervised hospital clinical time. Following completion of the classroom and clinical experience, there is a minimum of 360 hours of supervised paramedic internship. The fire schedule-based Paramedic program is offered once per year starting in August, and while based on a fire service scheduling model, enrollment is not limited to fire service personnel.
Class start date is August 27, 2025.
When accepted into the course, there is a MANDATORY orientation on August 21, 2025 from 0830-1630. Orientation is a requirement of the program; please ensure you are available for that date. Again, attendance is REQUIRED.
There is a $50 application fee. Once accepted into the program, there will be a $500 non-refundable seat fee (this will confirm your participation in the program) due to move you from the waitlist into the actual course. $9050.00 is the full balance of program tuition and fees. The non-refundable seat fee goes towards the program tuition.
