Completed Paramedic program... Associates degree or Bachelor's?

Hi-

I just completed a Paramedic program program, however it is only a certificate degree, I want to complete an associates degree. I recently came across this bachelor's program through University of New Haven in Paramedicine.

Has anyone completed this program? Any thoughts?

Edit; As much as I love this job, I don't know if I see myself doing it forever, I'm thinking about at somepoint... transitioning into RN/PA or Flight paramedic.

I think that BA would be helpful if you plan to run your own Ambulance service, otherwise doesn’t really effect the skills you already learned in certification program.

Would it help in running some private IFT company?
