This 21 day program is held from 9:00AM to 3:00PM M-W-F of each week. It is designed to give the student the skills and knowledge to function as a working Emergency Medical Technician at the basic level and to facilitate the passing of the National Registry Exam.

This agreement is a legally binding instrument when signed by the student and accepted by the school.
The CIEMT refund policy for the unused portion of
tuition fees: Students who withdraw from the Initial Certification Program for EMT-Basic and have completed 60
percent or less of the course shall be calculated as follows:
1. A registration
fee of $200 dollars will be deducted from the total tuition.
2. The remaining
figure will be divided by the number of hours in the program.
3. The sum arrived
at through the calculations of #2 is the hourly charge for the program.
4. The amount owed
by the student for the purposes of calculating a refund is derived by
multiplying the total hours attended by the hourly charge for instruction plus
the amount of the registration fee.
5. The refund
shall be any amount in excess of the figure derived in #4 that was paid by the
student.
6. If the student
has attended greater then 60% of the CIEMT EMT-Basic course tuition will not be
refunded.
7. If the student
has purchased a textbook for the Initial Certification Program for EMT-Basic
course, CIEMT may offer to re-purchase the textbook at 50% of its original
cost, providing that said textbook is in reasonable useable condition.
Example: If a
student withdraws from the CIEMT EMT-Basic course after attending for 10 days
of the course or 60 hours of class, refund of tuition would be calculated as
follows:
1. 1. $695.00
Course Fee - $200.00 Registration Fee =$495.00
2. $495.00 divided
by the number of hours in the program 110 Hrs = $4.50 an hourly charge for the
program.
3. The amount owed
by the student would be the hours in which the student attended the course 60
hours X the hourly charge $4.50 = $270.00 plus the registration fee of $200.00
equaling a student owed amount of $470.00
4. The amount in
excess and refund to the student would be tuition amount $695.00 – $470.00 the
amount owed by the student, which would equal a refund amount paid to the
student of $225.00.
