We are excited to start welcoming our future cadets- our Cadet Program is now accepting applications until December 13, 2026 for our 2026-27 cohort!
The BHVRS Cadet Program offers high school students hands-on experience in emergency medical services and the opportunity to work toward becoming EMTs.
To be eligible for the Cadet Program, students must be at least 16 years old by June 1, 2027, and currently enrolled in high school. Cadets will be required to take a New Jersey state certified EMT course in the summer of 2027. Our Cadet Program is very popular, and each year we receive more applications than there are available spots. The squad accepts applications from high school students only during this limited annual application window which will close December 13, 2026. Following the application, candidates will be interviewed between December 2026 to January 2027. Candidates who are selected to be part of our program will be notified in February 2027. Candidates must live in the Berkeley Heights area. Questions may be directed via email to: cadet.advisor@bhvrs.org.
