"Sitting at my desk after-hours, on weekends, or whenever, it was nice to share comments, ask questions, throw out theories, and then hear back from colleagues! I can’t thank Kaplan enough for this opportunity and I look forward to the next class I take online with Kaplan!"

"As an educator, the constant challenge of connecting with a student is quite difficult. The Medic Monthly videos allow our institution to show educationally reliable content in a video form to reinforce lectures the students have already had. We instituted the videos a year ago and have had excellent responses from the instructors and students. We look forward to seeing next month's."

"Medic Monthly has excellent video footage that is specific to several topics we cover in class. The title of each video tape makes it easy to immediately put the tape into action to better illustrate our ‘death by PowerPoint’ lectures. As students learn differently, the video format brings another method to increase learning potential in our students. The scenario sections, followed by Dr. Katz's play-by-play narration, help to drive home relevant points. It appears that there are no ‘"protocols’ being used, which is perfect for us, as we don't teach specific protocols, but rather a selection of available treatments from which their future medical directors will decide. If you're looking for a vote, Medic Monthly is the best product I've seen for supplemental use in the classroom."

"Speaking as an educator, Kaplan University’s Certificate in Financial Planning defines exactly what online education should be—from the faculty to its seamless digital instruction. It was one of the best learning experiences I’ve had; in fact, I referred two of my colleagues to this program."

"East Lake Fire Rescue, Pinellas County, FL, three stations and three ALS engines with minimum staffing of three each. Our department had previously subscribed to a different CE provider and our personnel were very dissatisfied with the product. We have since subscribed to Medic Monthly and have gotten rave reviews without anyone complaining about the quality of the training. That in itself is rare in the fire service and a testament to the value of KCE's Medic Monthly."

"I chose online distance education because I was recovering from back surgery. Now back to work after my injury, an online course is the only way I could study this material while being an Emergency Medicine Resident in Fresno. The website, with the flash media plugins and links to reference websites, has worked well."

"From day one, the Medic Monthly videos have provided current, realistic, and action-packed EMS training for our members. The videos are short and to the point, which is really appreciated by all firefighters in general. The training provided holds your attention and has been exceptional to date. You can't go wrong by utilizing this training venue to supplement your required paramedic CEUs"

"As an EMS educator for my department, I have seen countless ideas come and go regarding an offsite training system that is both practical and user friendly. In the past, the fire service has seen television training series and recorded video tape, as well as some digital media. However, Kaplan Continuing Education - Fire and EMS Division has accomplished what others just talk about; a true interactive and time manageable training system. The online education series provides our employees with a comprehensive training experience. The system is easy to use and provides a learning environment from the convenience of the firehouse computer. Furthermore, the system provides pretesting and streaming video (instead of video tape), as well as post-testing and administrator interaction. Additionally, you can customize your department’s website and track how your staff is doing over the Internet. What a great investment!"

"I was able to read and complete lessons at my own pace and received quick feedback and answers from Academic Advisors whenever I requested. The Web-based field trips provided resources which are extremely useful to a professional in the world of health care and have created additional career paths to follow. Thank you for allowing me this opportunity, a great value, and a truly unique professional experience!"

"The coursework prepared me to have the confidence and knowledge I needed to complete and pass the CFP® exam. As a working professional, wife, mother, and volunteer in my community, the ability to go online at my convenience to study and do the coursework was a blessing. I completed the course in 18 months and passed the exam on the first try. Thank you, Kaplan."

"I am the associate professor and department chair for the EMS Academy at Palm Beach Community College in Lake Worth, Florida. We have been using the Medic Monthly series going on 2 years now. My approach towards EMS education is on active learning. The videos enable me to first lecture on a topic, then discuss it, and then the video gives the student a chance to see how a call of that nature would actually unfold. We then have ‘answer the call,’ which is where we have the students and instructors simulate an actual call. These methods have proven extremely successful in our program. Without the ability to actually SEE a call unfold, and the instructional commentary by Dr. Katz, I don’t see how they might tackle these very real common, difficult types of calls."

"I have really enjoyed your Medic Monthly series. As a volunteer FF/EMT, it is often hard for me to get my continuing education, at least things that count towards renewal. This is especially true for National Registry credits. As a scientist in real life, I have taken many other online training courses, and most are less than adequate. KCE's online classes are extremely well done, enjoyable, interactive, and are excellent learning and refresher opportunities. I have thoroughly enjoyed Kaplan Continuing Education Fire & EMS Division's online training and would highly recommend it to all EMS and firefighter professionals."

I found the website very effective and I will inform my colleagues and friends to visit it. I specially thank you for your help, and I thank the people who put this website together."

"Thank you for Medic Monthly! What a great learning tool this has been for our department. I have gained a ton of new knowledge as well as sharpening some old skills. The lessons are well presented, easy to follow, and make learning fun. Thank you to you and all your staff for a great tool. Keep up the good work, as I look forward to hours of learning."

"The Spokane Valley Fire Department has partnered with Kaplan Continuing Education, Fire and EMS Division for the past couple of years. It has proven to be a great supplement to our department's Ongoing Training and Evaluation Program (OTEP), which was just approved by the State of Washington Department of Health. With the ability to now do Kaplan Continuing Education, Fire and EMS Division's training online, it's made our annual ALS training just that much easier. I would highly recommend it for any organization who wants to expand their ALS training."

"As an EMS coordinator, I appreciate the many benefits that Medic Monthly offers our personnel. It is convenient for them to sit down in their station, view a video, and do a quiz as their schedule permits. They are also able to apply their CEUs toward their National Registry certification requirements. The timeliness of the topics and the variety of medical emergencies keep them interested. Thank you for providing EMS personnel with a fun and easy way to accomplish some of their monthly training goals."

"The Medic Monthly series offers our field personnel timely, relevant, and entertaining continuing education on their schedule. As our requests for service increase, bringing crews together for training becomes more burdensome and stretches our resources to the maximum. Medic Monthly, with the availability of its online training center, has allowed our units to remain in their first-due areas, complete relevant continuing education, and utilize what would otherwise be downtime to train. The crews like the material and have been nothing but complimentary on the quality of the topics presented in a clear, concise, and entertaining format. Bravo on a job well done."

"Going back to school even online was challenging. During the course of classes and of the program, there was always help through email, a phone call, and a class discussion board, which I found very helpful. A student cannot fail with the resources available. I found the entire Kaplan experience to be a positive, uplifting medium in my life as a student and my life as a whole."

In addition, I find the information very current and relevant to my current position. This course is increasing my confidence through in-depth knowledge."
