Hi, there is a number of different things that a taught during training following the C,A,B,C,D,E algorithm as with any form of first aid would teach with more emphasis on the catastrophic bleed at the start. however as a CMT you can learn more advanced techniques such as cannulation surgical cricothyroidotomy blood storage and more, you also cover a pharmacy, environmental health and stores management so the is a lot to cover.
Any more specific details required please feel free to ask.
Jordan
