Class Format Definitions
Online (Asynchronous)
Definition:
In an online class, all course activity occurs online; there are no
required real-time or on campus meetings. All content is
delivered in Canvas. Coursework does have due dates as set by
the instructor, but can be completed, once the content becomes
available, at any time before the due date.
In a real-time online class, course meetings occur virtually on
Zoom. The course meetings occur at scheduled days and times.
Instructors will use Canvas to disseminate grades and potentially
other class content, such as documents, discussions, and
announcements. At the start of the semester, a detailed
schedule for the term, with Zoom meetings, will be posted on
IVC's Schedule Site and in Canvas.
In a HyFlex class, all course meetings are held face-to-face at IVC or a designated physical site, and may also be attended
virtually, via Zoom (or the district-approved video conferencing platform). The course meetings occur at scheduled days and
times. Instructors may still use Canvas or other software products to enhance the class outside of the face-to-face meetings,
such as by posting documents, discussions, and announcements. High-stake assessments, such as mid-term or final will be the
same exam for online or face-to-face students. Training/approvals: Canvas Basics, Zoom, Classroom Technology Tools.
In a hybrid class, course activity occurs both online and face-toface on campus; both the online and face-to-face portion are
required. The face-to-face meetings occur on scheduled days
and times. All online content is delivered in Canvas and/or
zoom. At the start of the semester, a detailed schedule for the
term, with face-to-face meetings, will be posted on IVC's Schedule Site
and in Canvas.
In a face-to-face class, course activity occurs at IVC or a
designated physical site. The course meetings occur on
scheduled days and times. Instructors may still use Canvas or
other software products to enhance the class outside of the
face-to-face meetings, such as by posting documents,
discussions, and announcements.
Changes may be occurring daily for schedule data and files are subject to change.

EMTP 235 Course Description:
Prerequisites: 1. Successful completion of EMTP 200, EMTP 210, EMTP 215, EMTP 225 (or EMTP 220/EMTP 230); and, 2. Successful completion of all other requirements for entrance into and/or continuation in the IVC paramedic program; and, 3. Approval of the IVC Paramedic Program Director and IVC Paramedic Program Medical Director; and, 4. Student Intern may enter/reenter EMTP 235 up to 1 year after completion of the previous prerequisites with prior mutual agreement between the IVC Program Director, IVC Medical Director and the Student Intern; and completion of any required remedial training. This course provides the first phase of field internship training to prepare the paramedic student intern to render pre-hospital advanced life support (ALS) within an organized EMS system based on course content equivalent to the U.S. Department of Transportation's National EMS Education Standards for Paramedics (2009). The student will progress through record keeping and increasing patient care responsibilities from observation of a team to working as a team member to functioning as a team leader in actual patient care in the pre-hospital setting. The student experience will cover all aspects of medical and traumatic emergencies, advanced patient assessments, and advanced care on an ALS vehicle under the supervision of a licensed paramedic approved by the Local EMS Authority. In addition, the student must complete 30 advanced life support contacts as defined in the Calif. Code of Regulations, Title 22, Div. 9. This course is an intense one, requires more than usual study hours, TBA requirements, and the student’s total dedication for successful completion. This program is accredited by the CAAHEP. (CSU)
