Former EMT students Present at CTEC

Last Thursday, we had guest speakers from prior years class volunteered to come and speak with my class this year. They brought a custom slide show to present and gave a lecture to the students on what it was like going from a High school student in the chairs to working in the profession of public safety. Not only did the guest speakers ask questions to the students, but the students were asking a lot of questions about the industry. At this time I believe all of these guest speakers are going to return for our job fair on April the 4th with their departments.
 
Here is their slide show
