What’s the difference between the 5 and 6-week courses?

Our 5-Week Accelerated course requires that you attend skill sessions each Saturday in Shelton, CT, from 8a-4p for 5 weeks. 

The 6-week Boot Camp is for individuals who are unable to attend skill sessions on multiple Saturdays, including those travelling from out of state.  So, we run the skill sessions Monday-Friday at the end of the course.  NREMT Practical skills testing is available for that Saturday at $130 (**when available, cannot be guaranteed**).
