DATE: May 21, 2024
TO: Board of Supervisors
SUBMITTED BY: David Luchini, RN, PHN, Director, Department of Public Health
SUBJECT: Retroactive Agreement with State Center Community College District
RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):
Approve and authorize the Chairman to execute a retroactive revenue Agreement with State
Center Community College District for student education and training by the Department of Public
Health Emergency Medical Services Primary Paramedic Training Program, effective May 1, 2024
through April 30, 2029, total not to exceed $1,000,000.
There is no additional Net County Cost associated with the recommended action. Approval of the
recommended action will continue the Department of Public Health Emergency Medical Services (EMS)
Primary Paramedic Training Program's association with Fresno City College (FCC), a college of the State
Center Community College District(SCCCD)for five years. The agreement allows the County to receive a
portion of the state base instructional apportionment funds based on percentage of fees collected at a rate of
60%. This enables the County to offset a portion of the cost for paramedic training and allows the
County-provided training to be counted as college credits thru FCC. This item is countywide.
ALTERNATIVE ACTION(S):
Should the Board not approve the recommended action, the Department's EMS Primary Training Program
would not be able to continue the relationship with FCC and receive student instruction hour fees. Students
attending the County paramedic course would not be eligible for college credits and access to Fresno City
College student resources.
RETROACTIVE AGREEMENT:
The recommended agreement is retroactive to May 1, 2024, as there were a number of unforeseen delays
in FCC getting this agreement to the SCCCD Board of Trustees outside of County control.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no increase in Net County Cost associated with the recommended action. Under the
recommended agreement, revenues from FCC are estimated to be based on a percentage per year. FCC
shall pay the County 60% of the state base apportionment earned based on eligible instructional full-time
equivalent student hours. FCC receives a yearly budget to provide funding for the paramedic training
program. Based on prior year enrollments, the Department estimates that revenue will total approximately
$200,000 annually, which is dependent on the number of enrolled students and attendance hours. The
combination of this revenue and revenue received from tuition paid by paramedic students fully offsets the
County's costs for providing these classes. Sufficient appropriations and estimated revenues have been
included in the Department's Org 5620 FY 2023-24 Adopted budget and will be included in future requested
County of Fresno page 1 File Number.24-0057
File Number:24-0057
budgets for the duration of the term.
DISCUSSION:
The County Paramedic Training Program began in 1975. On January 8, 2002, the Board approved the
original Agreement with the SCCCD, creating an affiliation between the Paramedic Training Program and
FCC. The affiliation is beneficial to the County because it enables the Paramedic Training Program to meet
California's minimum requirements for accreditation in accordance with the Commission on Accreditation of
Allied Health Education Program, which provides college credits to the paramedic students, and allows
student access to educational and financial assistance tools available at FCC.
The Emergency Services Division conducts two paramedic training classes each year and the length of
each training class is approximately 11 months. Students in the program are eligible for 36 college units.
The program includes 600 lecture hours, 200 clinical internship hours, and 480 field internship hours which
satisfy California Health and Safety Code and California Code of Regulations requirements in accordance
with the Commission on Accreditation of Allied Health Education Program. Each class averages 30
paramedic students.
The agreement with SCCCD differs from the County's model contract in that it contains a mutual
indemnification clause. This has the effect of making each party responsible for losses, costs, expenses,
liabilities, damages, or claims arising from their own actions or inactions. The Department considers this to
be an acceptable and minimal risk to the County.
This agreement can be terminated by either party with thirty days advance written notice. The proposed
agreement with FCC will be effective May 1, 2024 through April 30, 2029. FCC requested that the Agreement
be effective as of May 1, 2024 to coincide with school class schedules. Additionally, because the proposed
agreement is effective May 1, 2024, it supersedes the current agreement(Agreement No. 21-223)for
paramedic training classes which terminates June 30, 2024.

APPENDIX B
FCC Payment Split with Agency
Fire Agencies- Payment is based on the number of FTES (Full-Time Equivalent Student) generated by the training hours
submitted. One FTES is equal to 525 contact hours, which are 50-minute hours.To calculate the number of FTES that the
agency is paid for, we take the number of training hours and convert that into the number of contact hours (50-minute
hours). We then divide that number by 525 to get the total number of FTES.The State of California pays an
apportionment rate per FTES. We split that with the agency 60/40.
Fire Agency Example:
Total Agency Trainings Hours to
Training Hours Contact Hours Contact Hours to FTES FTES to Apportionment
1000 1000 x 60/50= 1200 1200/525 = 2.28
2.28 x($4840 x 60%) _
$6,621.12 (gross revenue)
Fire agency students are awarded college units based on the number of training hours they complete. Units are
calculated by converting the training hours into contact hours, and the contact hours into units.There are 54 contact
hours in one unit. Units are always rounded down.
Gross Revenue—
Total Training Hours Contact Hours to Registration Fees= Net
to Contact Hours Total Units Units to Registration Fees Revenue
100 x 60/50= 120 120/54=2.22 rounded to 2.00 x$46.00=$92.00 $6,621.12-$92.00=
2.00 $6,529.12
Police Agencies- Payment is based on the number of units completed by students taking ISA courses. Each ISA course has
a unit value. Units are converted into contact hours, and contact hours are converted to FTES. One unit equals 54 contact
hours, and there are 525 contact hours in one FTES.
Police Agency Example:
Total Agency Training Units to
Training Units Contact Hours Contact Hours to FTES FTES to Apportionment
100 100 x 54=5400 5400/525= 10.28 10.28 x($4840 x 60%) _
$29,853.12 (gross revenue)
Units to Registration Fees Gross Revenue—Registration Fees=Net Revenue
100 x$46.00=$4,600 $29,853.12-$4,600=$25,253.12
The apportionment amount changes annually and is based on the state budget.The amount is available on the California
Community College Chancellor's Office website.
