Emergency Medical Technicians and Paramedics-

The education of this job is that you have to have a high school diploma to become an EMT or paramedic; you have to take a few training programs for this and you have to complete them all to become an EMT or paramedic. There are different levels you have to active to get to what kind of EMT or paramedic you want to be the levels are EMT-Basic, EMT-Intermediate, and EMT-Paramedic. To get the training you need you would have to have a about two years to reach EMT-Intermediate. You have to have other qualities’ to become one like you have to be emotionally stable, have good dexterity, agility, and physical coordination, and be able to lift and carry heavy loads. If you can’t handle any of this it won’t be the job you would enjoy. I would love to do this job anything in the medical field I would love to do. Licensure- All 50 states require certification for each of the EMT levels, and this takes about 4 years it depends on if you get all these levels done fast and well. Usually every two year you have to recertify to make sure you still have all the qualifications and job skills for this. The earnings of EMT-Par medic range from $45,280 to $17,300 a year this all depends on where your job is and what level your on. Paramedics and get promoted to supervisors, operations managers, administrative directors, or executive directors of emergency services, this all depends on what you do and how well you do it.


Social Work-
I like to help people with their problems and find out different ways to help them that’s why I think this career path is right for me to do. You have to graduate high school then go to college. There is three different choices of social work that you can do you can do family, children, and school. And then there is also medical and public health you can do as well. You have to have a bachelor’s degree to take this job which means you have to go to college to get this. All social works have to be emotional stable and mature and the biggest one is being sensitive of others peoples feeling and how the act and you have to adapt to so many different personality’s of the people you have to deal with and work with, you need to be very responsible and now how to handle responsibility very well you need to know how to work with co works and also work independently. For the training it takes about 3 years it all depends on what path of social work you take.
