Ah, that's a pain. I don't know if I want to be a student again, I was just hoping Australia had a similar system to America, but it's seeming to be more like the UK!

Hi, Firstly, just to clarify, my name is actually Xina. (Don't ask where my parents got this from!) Also, it is interesting that Australia doesn't seem too impressed with the EMT-B certification considering I was nationally certified in advanced airway techniques. I pretty much was able to do everything but Intravenous drugs. Does Australia not have a layered qualification system like the US? From reading everyone's posts, and thank you so much for your time! I am assuming full paramedic qualifications would be an absolute necessity. Since the UK have decided to turn this into a degree, I'd have to wait for 3 years to qualify plus years of experience on top. What is the lowest qualification in over there?

Hey guys, I gained my EMT-B license in America a couple of years back but I have now been in England for a couple of years and I am planning on spending a year or 2 in Australia. I know that one company recognized American certs but I am wondering if this is a nation-wide? I will probably have to update my certs so if you guys have any info on offer to aide in my quest for working in EMS all around the world. please let me know! Thanks! Xina

Hi all! I am in a rather unusual position. I hold an EMT-Basic Certificate but, for some personal reasons, I moved back to England at the beginning of this year. I am just wondering how, if possible, I could apply for EMT-B vacancies while I am still living in England. Is there a website that companies list vacancies on? Thanks guys, hope you're doing well!
