I paid Utah EMT Academy for EMT training expecting a clear path to Utah licensure. After completing the course and passing the required exam(s), I was later informed that my licensure approval was delayed due to issues with the program and that I would need to complete additional in-person psychomotor training hours at another approved training center--at extra time and cost. When I asked for updates and requested a refund, I did not receive one. After disputing the charges through my bank, I received threatening emails demanding payment and referencing potential legal action and reports to credentialing/licensing bodies. I'm sharing this so prospective students ask very specific questions up front about Utah authorization/compliance, psychomotor requirements, and the refund policy in situations where students can't move forward as expected. I can't recommend this program based on my experience. read more

FEWER than one star! BEWARE! DO NOT SIGN UP FOR COUSE WORK WITH THIS SCAM OF A COMPANY!! I paid for a course that was supposed to take place in October, and it never materialized. They said they would give a refund, and five months later, I haven't received a cent. Seriously, don't do it. read more

I was originally enrolled in the October EMT class at Utah EMT Academy. That class was delayed by an entire month because the state allegedly needed to "review" it. By the time the academy finally received approval, the delay made it unrealistic for me to continue with that course. Alex, the owner, then offered October students the option to switch to the January class, which I accepted. From that moment on, Utah EMT Academy effectively disappeared. Despite repeated follow-up emails, I received no response from Alex and no response from the course coordinator. No enrollment confirmation. No start details. No explanation. Nothing. Eventually, I checked the academy's website for clarity, and I found that the January class had been removed from the posted schedule entirely, making the lack of communication even more concerning. It later became clear that the class had already begun without any notice to me, making participation impossible. This is not a minor administrative oversight. This is gross negligence and complete disregard for students' time, money, and career plans. An EMT program--of all things--should understand the importance of accountability and communication. Utah EMT Academy appears incapable of providing either. Students should not have to continue to ask for basic information, nor should they be forced to repeatedly email just to be acknowledged. The silence from leadership and staff speaks volumes about how this academy operates. read more

If you are looking for your EMT certification, DO NOT GO HERE. The state has an active investigation into this facility and this so called "educational" program. To put it simple, i was a student of UEMTA. Felt like I had learned a lot, turns out I wasn't. Wasn't confident enough to show off my skills and knowledge of the EMS world. To add on, late notices, staff showing up late, programs and websites that ALEX has access to, down for 2+ weeks, then proceeds to kick 85% of the students that have "failed to meet the standard." If this is what you're looking for? Have fun with 1,200 dollars down the drain and waste of time. Don't worry, EVERYONE IN THE EMS EDUCATION SYSTEM IS FULLY AWARE OF WHATS GOING ON WITH UEMTA read more
