Making fast, life-saving decisions is probably the most important thing an emergency medical technician (EMT) can do. If you want to help those who are hurt or in need, have an interest in the health care industry and are a quick, critical thinker, you might consider a career in the emergency medical sciences. Oklahoma City Community College offers a certificate of mastery program in basic emergency medical technology. This will give you the same training you need to enter the health care world without taking the general education requirements needed for a degree.
