EMT Refresher Courses
The New Britain EMS Academy offers several EMT refresher curriculums to meet the needs and requirements of those looking to recertify their EMT certification. Two course formats are offered:
One-Day Distributive
This course provides recertification that is a State approved refresher with 24 hours online, and a single 8 hour day in classroom consisting of practical skills practice / testing, CPR, and state proctored written exam. The 24 hour online topics satisfy state requirements and are provided by a CAPCE accredited vendor. The skills portion and testing take place at the New Britain EMS Academy. This class does not apply to those wishing to maintain their national registry and is recommended for experienced providers.
NCCP Compliant In Class
This course meets the current 30 hour State of Connecticut OEMS EMT recertification requirements as well as the NREMT NCCP requirements for the 20 hours National component, as well as 10 hours state and local component. For the 10 hours of individual content you may purchase access to a CAPCE approved online CME program through NBEMSA or use your own CAPCE or locally approved content.
On the final classroom day participants will complete both a practical and written exam. The written exam will be administered and proctored by the CT DPH OEMS.
