Lunch & Learn: How to Become an EMT and Firefighter
Join us and learn about careers as Emergency Medical Technicians (EMTs) and firefighters.
This session will provide an inside look at both career paths, including training requirements, certifications, physical and academic expectations, hiring processes, and day-to-day responsibilities in emergency response. Learn how EMTs and firefighters serve on the front lines of public safety, the differences and overlap between the roles, and the steps you can take now to begin preparing for this fast-paced, team-driven profession. Whether you’re exploring career options or feel called to serve your community in critical moments, this session will give you practical guidance and a clear starting point.
Free lunch to the first 30 attendees.
Join us for Lunch & Learn, an engaging workshop hosted by the Base Education Center (BEC). These unique workshops offer a casual yet informative training experience during the lunch hour, providing the Camp Pendleton community with an opportunity to gather and explore specific topics.
