AMR and Southwestern College program promises cadets they’ll “Earn While They Learn.”
In order to fill that need, Southwestern partnered with AMR to clear the path for 11 dedicated students, including Ramirez.
“They’re not going to have the tuition expense, they’re not going to have student loans,” explained Hums. AMR is covering the bills for all 11 cadets and will pay them a salary with benefits while they’re in school. “They get full-time benefits even though they’re just part-time students,” said a smiling Claudia Rempel, an AMR operations manager.“It lifts a weight off my shoulders,” Ramirez said with a sigh.
Ultimately, at the end of the 250-credit hour program, all 11 candidates will have jobs with AMR, an ambulance company serving National City and parts of northern and eastern San Diego County.Part of that success also adds more women to a profession dominated by men. Seven of the 11 cadets are young women. Ramirez couldn’t wait to tell her daughter.This is the first time AMR and Southwestern College have partnered on the Earn While You Learn program.
