A grade of “D”, “F”, or a mark of “U” or
“NC” is not acceptable for progression to the next semester, nor is it
acceptable for graduation if it occurs in the last semester of the
program. Successful completion of the American Heart Association
Advanced Cardiac Life Support course is required for the student to
progress to Paramedic Field Internship (EMS 2431). The didactic portion of ACLS is
taught during Cardiovascular Care I (EMS 1402). All ACLS testing is done
during Cardiovascular Care II (EMS 2120).
*Anatomy and Physiology covering all body systems or EMS 1311 is
required either as a prerequisite or co-requisite for EMS 1602.
