Program Update: EMT Program

NVOC is excited to share with our community that we are planning to relaunch our EMT program for the 2026–2027 school year. While we look forward to bringing this opportunity back to our students and community, NVOC is not currently offering any EMT-related classes at this time.

 

The information provided below is for general informational purposes only. These procedures will be updated once the program is officially reinstated and may not reflect the information provided at this time.

 

We encourage those interested in the program to check back for updates as additional information about enrollment, requirements, and program timelines becomes available. We appreciate your interest and look forward to sharing more details soon.

PREREQUISITES:
Students must be 18 years of age to participate in the EMT program
Students must possess BLS (Healthcare Provider) CPR certification on the first day of class. 
 
 BACKGROUND SCREENING AND URINALYSIS:
At NVOC, it is required that the school will conduct a background check and urinalysis at the student's expense prior to clinical rotations.
 
Students accepted to the EMT program will be denied clinical rotation without successful completion of a seven-year criminal background check and urinalysis screening. Failure of any portion of the program's required checks may prevent the student from completing the EMT program, depending on the findings and based upon the current program's requirements.  
 
NVOC requires background checks as a condition of acceptance for clinical rotation, and may do so because:
    • students have significant interaction with minors and vulnerable populations;
    • students may be eligible to take the NREMT examination but there is no guarantee of licensing;
    • students who cannot successfully complete a background check may not, in some instances, be eligible for licensure, certification, or employment upon graduation.
 
NVOC reserves the right to request another background check at any point in a student’s program.
