The NCCP model applies to EMR, EMT, CRT, and Paramedic Clinicians. The model consists of three categories of continuing education: National, Local, and Individual; and for most levels, reduced hours and an increase in the amount of distributive education that can be used towards recertification. Below is a breakdown for each Maryland clinician level and information available on the NREMT website about the new NCCP model.  \n\n| Clinician Level | Maryland Requirements | NREMT Requirements |\n| --- | --- | --- |\n| Paramedic* | • Active registration with NREMT\u003Cbr>• State Content Renewal Courses | 60 hours in a 2-year cycle\u003Cbr>• 30 hours National (10 can be distributive)\u003Cbr>• 15 hours Local/State (10 can be distributive)\u003Cbr>• 15 hours Individual (15 can be distributive)\u003Cbr>• Skills Verification |\n| CRT | 60 hours in a 2-year cycle that meet the requirements of an NREMT Paramedic:\u003Cbr>• 30 hours National (10 can be distributive)\u003Cbr>• 15 hours Local/State (10 can be distributive)\u003Cbr>• 15 hours Individual (15 can be distributive)\u003Cbr>• Skills Verification from EMSOP\u003Cbr>• State Content Renewal Courses | NREMT downgraded all Intermediates to AEMT.

However, those that do may use the NREMT process.
