Provision of a Student Ambulance Paramedic Diploma course

The East of England Ambulance Service NHS Trust are currently advertising for someone to provide a Student Ambulance Paramedic Diploma course.

But what is that? It seems like it should be a course to train paramedics who staff a student ambulance. Presumably a student ambulance is one that follows students around on a pub crawl, rescuing those who are worse for wear. The East of England Ambulance Service covers Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire, Hertfordshire, Essex, Norfolk and Suffolk, which presumably includes Cambridge University. So they're looking for people to pick up drunk Cambridge students and make sure they are OK.

Of course that's not what it's about, but intriguingly someone had to place a Freedom Of Information request to find out more.
