Hi guys,

Im new to this so bear with me. Can anybody tell me what exactly are the requirements now to become a paramedic with the HSE. I know you need your C1 & D1 license (in prosess of getting this, in the very hopeful view that there will be a recruitment drive) I have heard (chinese wispers) that there will be a new recruitment drive in the coming weeks, with a view to begin classes in September. On reading some previous posts it seems an extraordinarily hard career to get into, would going to england be any easier as this is the only career i am focused with, I am an EMT but no work in that.

Thank you in advance

If you read the other sections it will answer your questions especially HSE EMT interviews 2009 this will give you allthe information you need I'm sorry to tell you that C1 &D1 licenses are not the only requirements you need any more.

read through the other posts on this forum, and you'll have all your answers.

there can't realistically be 3-4 threads on the same topic! :rolleyes:

there is info here if you look on UK training, C1 & D1 licences, Leaving Certificate requirements etc.

Read the other threads.

In summary, the only new requirement we know of is a leaving cert with 5 passes and a science subject, or leaving cert with 5 passes and EMT (with experience).
