Common questions.

Complete all 24 course hours, earn at least 80% on the final written assessment, and demonstrate psychomotor proficiency with zero critical failures. Skills include medical and trauma assessment, airway/BVM, CPR/AED, bleeding control, splinting, and spinal motion restriction.

The course provides an EMT Refresher Course Completion Certificate documenting 24 EMS CE hours and a Skills Competency Verification Form after the course requirements are met. These are course documents, not an NREMT certification or state license.

It is intended for EMTs seeking recertification education, learners needing remedial education after three unsuccessful NREMT attempts, candidates pursuing re-entry, and learners refreshing their EMT knowledge.

Yes. Successful completion earns 24 EMS CE hours toward EMT recertification. Additional CE courses are offered through our sister company, EMS CE HUB, at emscehub.com.

No. Remediation and re-entry have different requirements. NREMT’s current EMT re-entry pathway requires 40 qualifying education credits plus examination and skills requirements. This 24-hour refresher alone does not satisfy the full 40-credit education requirement. Confirm the course’s acceptance for any required remedial education before registering.
