AREA 3 TRAINING CENTER Home of KCTCS - STATE FIRE RESCUE TRAINING and the GREEN RIVER FIREFIGHTERS ASSOCIATION

The Paramedic Program is offered at the Owensboro Community & Technical College - Southeast Campus and is administered through the Area 3 Training Center. We start a new class every third semester and students will work through the core curriculum over the following four semesters. Students are not required to take all of the general education classes to enroll in the program but there are a few suggested pre-requisite classes that will benefit the students as they journey through the program: BIO 135 - Anatomy & Physiology and Medical Terminology. Current Certification as an Emergency Medical Technician is required to be eligible for this program.

Interested applicants wanting to become enrolled into the Paramedic Program should contact Ms. Kay Whittington, Academic Advisor for the Paramedic Program. Ms. Whittington email address is kay.whittington@kctcs.edu and her phone is (270) 686-4490. Other questions may be directed to Joe Dennison, Program Coordinator at joe.dennison@kctcs.edu.
