Instructors Needed for Hands-On Workshops!

To support the incredible growth of our High School EMS Student Day—which has doubled in size over the last three years—we are actively looking for more instructors to help facilitate our hands-on education stations.

You do not need to hold an instructor license in Wisconsin to participate. We are seeking EMS professionals who:

  • Can connect with high school students

  • Are enthusiastic about EMS as a career

  • Enjoy sharing their knowledge in a fun, interactive environment

With a record turnout expected in 2026, we are expanding the number of workshops and student groups, and we need your help to make it happen. If you or your organization are interested in giving back, inspiring future providers, and making an impact, we’d love to have you on board.
