What an amazing experience at APC

What an amazing experience at APC. I seriously appreciate the support Jackie and Kym and all the other trainers who supported my journey over the 8 months. The online theory and 2 workshops involved makes this a brilliant place to study if you are working. I’ll be recommending to anyone who wants to study. This course has given most of the major skills I require to go onto study paramedics.

Workshop 1 in NSW

I just recently done workshop 1 in NSW with the amazing trainers Sophie and Betina. The were fantastic giving us the information needed, then demonstrating a scene for us to observe what they have experienced with a patient, then gave us the opportunity to practice gaining some hand on skills. It was such fun jam-packed week that just fly by. I left wanting to do so much more, I can’t wait till next time.

Holding back a dream

I have been holding in my dream to become a paramedic but thanks to APC I am 1 step closer. If you don't have the utmost belief you will pass a diploma, do the cert 4 but, with the help of the support team you will definitely be able to pass anything.

Thank you APC

Australian Paramedical College provide an excellent opportunity for students to either begin or develop their careers within the health sector. I completed my Diploma with APC and am very happy with the overall experience. I found APC to be very supportive in allowing me to work full time and also study at my own pace without any extra added stress of meeting deadlines. The trainers are very knowledgeable, happy to help and very quick to respond if I needed any assistance. The extra added bonus allowing me to complete my studies online, choosing to study with APC was a very easy decision for me to make.

A rewarding qualification

It had been over 20 years since I'd done any formal studies, so naturally I was nervous and apprehensive.
I needn't have been, yes it was challenging but so rewarding.
All the trainers, both online and at the clinical workshops were so helpful, friendly and knowledgeable.
I enjoyed this so much and am now able to work in the health care industry, with a real qualification.
I am also considering further studies and maybe going for the University degree, the bonus is, I'm now in the groove and some of the units in the Diploma transfer over, Bonus!

Scam, spam, and a waste of time and money

Don't enquire unless you want constant phone calls and emails. I wanted to see their fees as a protential study pathway, and I specified that I did not want any phone calls. This request was constantly ignored. The people who call are sales people and will do whatever they can to get you signed up. They will also constantly email you, even after unsubscribing and marking as spam.

Their finance options are extreamly poor, unless you have a large deposit upfront you won't be able to get onto one of their courses even if you wanted to.

Their name is also false advertising, the qualfication will not make you a paramedic. You need to go to university for that, all they offer is a pathway (which if you want to become a paramedic just skip it), or just the ability to work in healthcare were the paramedic skillset is not required.

Even with 80% RPL/credit transfer they were over priced charging way more then expected for non-clinical units.

Hi Joel,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us.

APC is committed to ensuring all prospective students are fully informed about the pathways we provide and how studying works with us before enrolling. As such, we prefer to speak with anyone who enquires over the phone to discuss their interests and study goals so we can make sure we’re able to meet their needs before progressing with their application. We apologise for any inconvenience caused, given you were not looking to have a further discussion with us at this stage.

All students need to attend university to become a qualified Paramedic as stated across all our marketing materials. Our courses qualify graduates to become a Medic, amongst many other promising healthcare professions, as well as provide a university pathway for people who have not been able to gain entry straight away for various reasons. There’s a lot of useful information on our website about career and university pathways.

We understand pursuing study is no small commitment which is why we offer various payment options to accommodate our student’s financial circumstances as much as possible. This is something that’s covered in an initial phone conversation so you can understand the types of flexibility available before enrolling.

Thank you again for your feedback. You are welcome to contact us directly via info@apcollege.edu.au to further discuss your experience and see how we can support you too.

100% recommend

I have loved my time at APC, I have learnt so much and have met so many wonderful people along the way. The trainers are brilliant and have an abundance of knowledge they never once made me feel silly for asking a question and they are always there and quick to reply to any emails. All staff I have interacted with over my diploma have been so approachable and absolutely lovely

What an amazing experience!

What an amazing experience!! I have just graduated and am the proud recipient of the Diploma in Emergency Medicine from the Australian Paramedical College. I have loved every moment! The theory is highly relevant, very informative and really sets you up with the knowledge you need to transition from practical placement to ongoing employment in the industry. I know this for a fact as I am now a proud team member of SA Ambulance! If paramedics is your passion, you can't go past the Australian Paramedical College! Top notch student support, high standard of course consent, flexible and self-paced learning....there are too many positives to list!

Diploma of Emergency Health Care

The self paced online learning can have it's challenges, no more but different to face to face learning.

I defiantly went through a few stages of struggle while completing my diploma of emergency healthcare and started feeling like I was being left behind. The saving factor for me was the AMAZING support that all the staff provide either through texting, phone calls and emails. This in itself has made my experience a positive one with APC. Without that support I'm not sure if I would have gotten through my Diploma so Thank you APC!

The course content is relevant and APC provides multiple forums to share idea's ask for help and review the course work.

My experience with APC

After completing my Diploma of Emergency Health Care at the Australian Paramedical College, I can confidently say that my time at the college has been exceptional. Choosing to enroll at the college was a fantastic decision. Throughout my academic journey, the trainers and assessors provided tremendous support and expertise, and the student support team was exceptional and very supportive. Not only have I acquired clinical skills and knowledge, but I have also undergone personal growth, increasing my confidence both as an individual and in my clinical capabilities. I am exceedingly proud of my accomplishments at the Australian Paramedical College (APC), as it has expanded my understanding of the pre-hospital healthcare setting. I wholeheartedly recommend APC to friends, family, and anyone interested in pursuing a bachelor's degree in Paramedic Science or seeking job opportunities in the mining sector as an Emergency Services Officer and more.

Completed Diploma of Emergency Healthcare!

I've recently completed the Diploma of Emergency Healthcare with APC and could not be more appreciative of the ongoing support from the whole team at APC. The trainers of the workshops were fantastic, the content within the modules was informative and provided a solid foundation from which to explore the subject matter and further my understanding. Lastly, hats off to the student success team, they provided the final push of motivation to get me through the last couple of modules and very much helped me with organising placement and sorting out a few issues as they arose. Cannot thank you all enough!!!

Definitely Recommend This Course!

In the ever evolving field of healthcare, the Non-Emergency Patient Transport (NEPT) course at Australian Paramedical College stands as a beacon of excellence, the course offered an amazing support of trainers and assessor’s to help out whenever I was stuck, whether this was via phone-call or email. During the workshops both my trainers, Betina and Sophie were absolutely incredible with their training, they provided ongoing encouragement and guidance throughout the workshops, because of this I found the workshops very beneficial, learnt so much from them and can easily retain the knowledge I need out on road!
As an individual whom is just finishing this course now, I am compelled to share my experience, which has profoundly reshaped my perspective on patient care and transportation, this course has not only made me feel ready for the road but has also made me more curious towards a career in healthcare.
In summary, the Non-Emergency Patient Transport (NEPT) course at Australian Paramedical College is an outstanding educational experience that equips participants with the skills, knowledge, and confidence needed to excel in this vital field. The course's blend of theoretical instruction, practical training, and emphasis on patient centred care ensures that graduates are well-prepared to make a meaningful impact.
For anyone seeking a rewarding career in patient transport, this course is an invaluable investment in their professional journey. It is, without a doubt, a paragon of excellence in healthcare education.
I am so very grateful for this opportunity and I thank everyone at Australian Paramedical College for this empowering experience!! :))

My journey with the APC has been incredible. I am currently on my 120hrs clinical placement. I have gained so much knowledge from the day I first clicked open my first module until right now sitting in a sub centre waiting for another call out. The workshops are great fun and more importantly a wealth of information with practical learning and teaching from the highly experienced attending trainers. Not only have I obtained some new knowledge I’ve also gained some fantastic friends that are also on this journey. I highly recommend anyone thinking about it to jump right in and sign up. Thank you APC for the incredible informative learning content/modules, the support and guidance among the way. You are all legends.
