Our CAPCE-Accredited courses are automatically imported to your NREMT Transcript using the 'Import CAPCE Courses' on your NREMT Transcript page.
For State / Local NCCR a portion of Vermont’s state and local requirement topics are determined by the EMS office based on state-specific training needs. The remaining hours are determined at the district and/or agency level.
Although we strive to keep everything updated, please check with your State EMS Office for the most current re-certification information.
