When Zach began looking for educational opportunities he was brand new to the area. Friends recommended HGTC, and he quickly found the EMT program and knew it was what he had been looking for.
Zach was drawn to the EMT profession because of the ever-changing days and excitement that goes along with the job. He is hoping to be able to make a difference and even save lives once he is working in the field. Horry Georgetown Tech is helping prepare him for that with state of the art equipment and professors that truly care about their students.
Upon completion of the EMT Associate Degree, Zach plans to continue on in the Paramedic Certificate program at HGTC and become a nationally registered EMT-Paramedic. His advice to students is, “Ninety percent of the battle is showing up with the right attitude. If you come to class ready to learn, HGTC can make the rest happen.”
Congratulations, Zach, for being chosen as February’s Spotlight Student!
