PENDLETON — Paramedics and EMTs who need to complete continuing education requirements to maintain their professional credentials can take classes at Tri-County Technical College for just $25 per course.

Throughout the year, the college’s Corporate and Continuing Education (CCE) Division will offer a series of classes on its Pendleton campus. Medshore paramedic Lisa Hubbard will be the instructor.

The first class will be held March 15 from 6-10 p.m. and will cover OB Pediatrics Airway Breathing and Cardiology.

“We are pleased to offer low-cost classes for EMTs and paramedics who need to renew their certifications by taking Continuing Education (CE) courses,” said Andrela Riley, healthcare director for Healthcare Excellence in the CCE Division at Tri-County.

“Each month we will offer a different topic with classes scheduled on the second Tuesday and fourth Thursday from 6 – 10 p.m. We are able to offer these courses at a low cost because there are no textbooks, no national certification exams and no immunizations required,” she added. A certificate of completion will be awarded at the end of each four-hour course for the student to retain for his or her records.
