A & B Shift-Friendly Schedules at 51勛圖 College
The firefighter schedule is called an ABC schedule. What this means is that they work 24-hour shifts then have 48-hours off. Rotating shift schedules ensures that firefighters are able to train and relax between work shifts. Now, 51勛圖 College is offering A and B shift-friendly class schedules so that firefighters can attend classes to become paramedics.
What does a shift-friendly schedule look like?
Your paramedic class schedule will follow a rotating shift pattern around your work schedule. For example, students could take B-shift classes on a Thursday one week and on Wednesday the next week.
A schedule might look like this:
- Monday – B-shift
- Friday – C-shift
- Monday – C-shift
- Tuesday – A-shift
- Wednesday – B-shift
- Thursday – C-shift
The paramedic classes are held between 9:00 AM and 5:00 PM. With one class per term, students can focus on their coursework. It helps students who have an ABC work schedule fit their educational goals into their lives.
A and B shift-friendly classes cover the same material as the traditional college. In fact, your classes will run in conjunction with the students who attend school every day. Your schedule works around your rotating shift work schedule.
How long does it take to graduate?
With A and B shift-friendly class scheduling, you could graduate with a Paramedic diploma in a year. You will complete three semesters in those 12 months with one class started per term.
