The question originally came up because there were questions on the consistancy of MFR training..some teach to an almost Basic level of ability, and others don't get much beyond first aid. However a friend of one of the guys is setting one up and its supposed to be good stuff, so I think most of the group settled on that.

I just passed the Nation Registry last week for EMT-B..looking for a casual/contingency job in the field now..have a few few leads through friends, so wish me luck.
