Welcome to PERCOM and
thank you for selecting our Paramedic course. This is a 20 month course
(average is 12 months) that will include three segments: didactic, skills, and
clinical rotations. Upon Registration you will be assigned an instructor that
will guide you through your didactic training. Once you have completed the
final exam, you will continue to skills training and testing where you will get
hands on experience with equipment as well as have a instructor there to
answers any questions and address any concerns. Once you complete the skills
training/testing you will begin clinical rotations where you gain real world
experience. Once you feel confident and you have accomplished all the
requirements, you will be ready to use the knowledge you have gained from our
