Guest guest Posted December 31, 2001 Report Share Posted December 31, 2001 We have a tuition reimbursement program where we pay their tuition not only for paramedic school but additional college education as well. This we do in return for 1 year of employment after the completion of each semester. Additionally, we pay for all uniforms, bunker gear ect. At this time we have only one applicant.
