Paramedic Science: Your Questions, Their Journey – A Live Paramedic Science Q+A led by Ryan Goodman from University of East Anglia
March 9 @ 16:15 - 17:00
Join our interactive Question and Answer (Q+A) webinar, led by UEA Paramedic Science lecturer Ryan Goodman. Ryan will be joined by Florence Pizzey, a UEA student Paramedic and student ambassador, and George Smith, a registered Paramedic and UEA graduate – exploring their journey, experience of higher education and the realities of pre-hospital care.
Flo and George will share their personal perspectives on studying Paramedic Science, their unique transition to higher education and professional practice, with a consideration for the skills that have supported their success.
This online event is designed to give honest, practical insight into the paramedic profession, helping attendees better understand what to expect from study and working life. Submit your questions beforehand here, or bring them along with you – be part of the conversation.
