PADL (Paramedic Assessment Development and Leadership) Courses
Prehospital medicine is a chaotic and often challenging environment. PADL provides training on how to effectively transform a new paramedic into a confident and decisive leader, amid all the obstacles associated with EMS. PADL is a 6 hour class, it is broken into 4 separate courses starting with PADL defined. The class must be completed in sequential order. PADL defined, paramedic assessment, paramedic development and paramedic leadership. Each course has multiple lessons. After each course a quiz will be taken and a passing score needed in order to gain access to the next course.
Excellent course! The content, methodology, and delivery of PADL is fulfilling a void in pre-hospital instruction and precepting. Every agency with EMTs and Paramedics will greatly benefit from this curriculum for every provider.

Firefighter/Paramedic
I have had the extraordinary opportunity to watch the PADL program from its
inception. I have: worked under a PADL Paramedic (as an EMT), been precepted
by a PADL Paramedic (as a Paramedic student), and become a PADL certified
Paramedic working with Paramedic and EMT students. Having gone through all
of these different stages, I can say without hesitation that the PADL program is a
complete game changer. Having recently started precepting, the PADL program
has provided me the tools to make my students successful no matter what
background they are from. In my humble opinion, there is really no other program
like it.
