Paramedic Refresher
The 2024 Paramedic National Continued Competency Program (NCCP)
The new process for recertification from the NREMT requires 30 hours of National content and 30 hours of individual/state content. This course will cover 30 hours of National content only. Providers must complete the additional 30 hours of individual/state content on their own. For more information on the NREMT recertification process please visit www.nremt.org .
While ideal for the purpose of remediation, the Paramedic Refresher course is not intended to expand the cognitive or psychomotor ability above the entry level. Therefore, refresher courses should not be considered a means of continued expansion of cognitive information and introduction of new psychomotor skills. The Paramedic Refresher course is intended to deliver relevant, contemporary information to practitioners who are currently active in the field.
