Paramedicine Program Information Sessions

Attendance at a Paramedicine Program Information Session is optional for all students, but is highly recommended for anyone considering applying to COCC's Paramedic program. The sessions last approximately one hour and include time for questions/answers. Sessions are scheduled every Spring term remotely via Zoom. Once you register for the session, you will get an email with the Zoom link and information about the session. Please download and review the Selective Admissions Handbook as this will be reviewed during the session.

Students should complete as many of these courses as possible prior to applying to Paramedicine courses. Second year classes are open only to admitted Paramedicine students. All students should contact COCC Admissions and Records for application details early in the first year. Pre-requisite courses may be transferred into a student's COCC Paramedicine degree.
