Overview
Ronin™SA produces uniquely trained Ambulance Personnel (Level 5 Diploma) who are equally at home in traditional Ambulance Services (NHS & Private) as they are in austere environments e.g. close protection, maritime & aviation.
The Emergency Care Diploma (FREC 3 - 5) consists of a Classroom Phase (6 weeks) and a Practical Phase (750 hours) which can be completed in as little as 20 weeks (via our Practical Placement Partners) or up to 24 months (2 years)
