Specifications include, but are not limited to: The Office of Workforce Development (OWD), in conjunction with New Orleans Medical Emergency Services (NOEMS), seeks to empower young adults with the skills, certifications, and support necessary to embark on career trajectories with familysustaining wages that bolster their long-term social and economic mobility by developing an Emergency Medical Services Training Corps (EMS Training Corps). Consistent with the EMS Agenda 2050 guiding principles, we envision an innovative program that provides young adults from disadvantaged or underrepresented backgrounds with a rare on-ramp to an in-demand profession while addressing the impact of a nationwide EMS skilled worker shortage.
