A basic Life Support Course is like 2 hours (maybe 3). Actually did it in the morning then spend the afternoon testing everyone.
A Essenial First Aid at Work course is 8 hours (this is the legal requirement for FAW in the UK)
A Full First Aid at Work is 32 hours.
A EMT-B in the USA (min needed to do, to get on an Amblance) is 50 hours
The basic training for amblance in the UK is about month with a week training in driviong with blue lights
Want to be a Paramedic well that is a 3 year degree
Want to be a Nurse that again is a 3 year degree (and no you can't do one and swap for the other)
Want to be a doctor well that 5 years plus a few more years training on the job.
Ok if you want to get a medical Gas Qual well you looking at about 8 hours or so. Patient and casualty handing are both about 2-3 hours each.
