Yes, practical training or internships are almost always mandatory for EMT courses, preparing students for real emergencies by letting them apply classroom skills (like CPR, bandaging, using equipment) in real hospitals and ambulances, directly learning from pros, and building confidence to act fast and calmly under pressure. This hands-on experience bridges theory with practice, ensuring graduates are truly ready for chaotic, varied demands of emergency care.
