Mesabi Range College Paramedic Program

 Lecture & Skills Classes

 Attendance Policy: 100% attendance will be expected for all Paramedic students. Excuses for absenteeism will be directed at the Paramedic Instructor/Coordinator. Absences will be allowed for valid and significant reasons. Make-up hours or work will be assigned and agreed upon by the course instructor and the student. Additional costs may apply if individual make-up is required ($25 per hour).

Mid Program Interviews: Paramedic programs will be evaluated frequently – this will be an opportunity for the student, instructor, and Program Director and/or designee to privately discuss the program or student progress. If a student has concerns that cannot be re-mediated in this interview, a process will be initiated using appropriate counselors.
