More paramedics to be trained at Justice Institute of British Columbia

The Justice Institute of BC is getting an infusion of cash to help it expand paramedic training programs across the province.

According to a press release from the province, the funding will help the primary care paramedic certificate program to be delivered to more than 100 students in New Westminster, Chilliwack, Kelowna, Trail and Victoria. In addition, emergency medical responder training – a pre-requisite for the primary care paramedic certificate program – will be available to approximately 30 participants in Cranbrook, Port Alberni and Prince George.

Robinson said the province’s Future Ready plan is focused on making education and training more accessible, more affordable and more relevant. Mercer said there’s an “urgent” need for skills training in B.C., which is why these types of investments are important.
