Coaching the Emergency Vehicle Operator (CEVO)-Ambulance, Train-the-Trainer

This seminar will prepare instructors to teach Coaching the Emergency Vehicle Operator 4 (CEVO 4) a comprehensive defensive driving program that focuses on improving an operator’s ability to read traffic conditions, act accordingly, and prevent collisions in both emergency and non-emergency situations. Throughout the day's training session, attendees will not only complete the course themselves – they will also learn proven education methods and valuable tips for running a successful training program.

Along with the training, each participant will receive a complete CEVO 4 Ambulance Instructor Kit which includes video and leader’s guide. Multiple attendees from the same location can attend and receive their own leader’s guide (without the audio visuals) for an additional fee.
