Sacramento State's College of Continuing Education (CCE) is training the next generation of heroes who will save lives across our community. Our first responder programs in Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) and Paramedic services are breaking barriers and creating opportunities for students who dream of making a real difference.
These programs are special because they do more than teach skills – they transform lives. Students learn through hands-on experiences, working in small groups and using advanced simulation equipment. Imagine a student practicing life-saving techniques on interactive manikins, with instructors challenging them to think quickly and act decisively. We're the only California State University campus offering a paramedic program, which means our students receive unique, high-quality training that prepares them for critical emergency responses.
But we know that passion alone isn't enough. The Paramedic program costs around $15,000, which can stop many talented students from pursuing their dreams. That's where you come in. By giving a scholarship, you're not just supporting one student – you're helping build a stronger, safer community. Your gift breaks down financial barriers and allows motivated individuals to become the first responders who will one day save lives, support families, and strengthen our region.
Your generosity helps students thrive and turn their commitment to service into a lifelong career. Together, we can sustain student success and introduce possibility. Give today, and help a future first responder achieve their dreams.
Thank you for being part of our hive, our home.
