EMS classes meet on a “shift-based schedule.” What exactly is a shift-based schedule?
Brookhaven College EMS Program classes will meet on a traditional fire department work schedule where a class meets on a rotating three-day schedule. Classes will meet on an A-shift, B-shift or C-shift class schedule. Class would meet the first day, then again three days later and then again three days later and so forth. For example: The C-shift class begins on a Tuesday, meets again on Friday and then again on Monday. The only exemptions are Sundays and major holidays when the college is officially closed.
