EMT Recertification Requirements
Nationally Registered EMTs are required to renew their certification every two years. The EMT National Continued Competency Program (NCCP) establishes the continuing education standard used for recertification. The NCCP model requires continuing education in three components:
National Component (20 Hours): National component topics include airway and respiration, cardiovascular, trauma, medical, and EMS operations.
Local / State Component (10 Hours): These hours are flexible unless your state EMS office or local medical control has specific requirements.
Individual Component (10 Hours): These are flexible hours that may be achieved through any CAPCE approved educational component.
Continuing education must be approved by the Commission on Accreditation for Prehospital Continuing Education (CAPCE) or by their state EMS office.
