Our organization has been offering Primary Care Paramedic programs in Dawson Creek for several years. We are excited to enhance our program delivery with Emergency Medical Responder (EMR) training in Fall 2025 and February 2026. 

We are BC’s largest, private provider of paramedic training and pride ourselves on a student-centric classroom environment. Our local, experienced instructors are invested in our student’s success, and walk into the classroom with a passion for sharing their knowledge and expertise.

Emergency Medical Responder Certification

Emergency Medical Responder course (no pre-requisites required): February 23 – March 13, 2026

Upgrade to Emergency Medical Responder course (students MUST already have a First Responder certificate or license, or an OFA3 certificate): March 2 – 13, 2026

Our Emergency Medical Responder course is aligned with both provincial licensing standards and national competency profiles. Students can have confidence knowing that the skills and standards they learn in class will match expectations at BC licensing examinations. This certification is suitable for entry-level employment as a paramedic, and is a pre-requisite for the Primary Care Paramedic program. These courses are offered by our sister company, Columbia Medical Training.
