Many EMS leaders and |  |\n| stakeholders have provided input to the NREMT regarding this program. Thus far input has been |  |\n| positive. EMS Officials served on the committee that initiated the program and have served on |  |\n| focus groups that have provided input. Focus groups have found the program to be superior to our |  |\n| current recertification requirements. Modifications have been made to the original program based |  |\n| upon community input. Principles for the program are sound and used by other certification |  |\n| programs. The program matches the goals of the National Commission for Certifying Agencies. |  |\n| Keeping America's EMS workforce up to date and current will be a primary outcome. Change |  |\n| management will not be cumbersome for state EMS offices and the NREMT is ready to inform all |  |\n| Nationally Certified EMS providers of this dynamic program. |  |\n| We are in the final phases of approval process. The NREMT Board has discussed and reviewed |  |\n| the program on multiple occasions. Even though launch of the program is in 2016 much work |  |\n| remains to be accomplished. |  |\n| I am sending this memo to State EMS Officials so that we can receive your final input at the annual |  |\n| NASEMSO meeting. We have one question we will need answered from you, in addition to your |  |\n| general input. If the NREMT implements this program in 2016 for those due to recertify in 2018, do |  |\n| you have a current state law that will preclude a Nationally Certified EMS provider from |  |\n| using this program to meet state re-licensure requirements? |  |\n| We will not be asking you to change your laws. If your state law requirements are greater than |  |\n| those recommended below, the NREMT will only validate completion of our requirements. |  |\n| Let me briefly explain the Continued Competency Program: |  |\n| The program is founded on four principles -- below are the principles and reasons it was included in |  |\n\nthe model.  \nMaintenance of Professional Standing  \nEligibility for licensure must be maintained in order to retain National EMS Certification. Every individual who possesses NREMTs National EMS Certification must be eligible and not barred from licensure in a state. The NREMT requires validation of current, unlimited state licensure as part of recertification.  \nCognitive Competency  \nA professional expectation. The ability to perform adequately those cognitively complex tasks of the profession, at the appropriate provider level.  \nPractice Performance  \nEMS care is delivered at the local level. National EMS Certification requires competency and education at the local level. Continuous competency to practice will be validated (like our current recertification requirements) by EMS supervisors or training officers at the EMR and EMT level and by Medical Directors at the AEMT and Paramedic levels.  \nLife-long Learning  \nInitial training/education is intended to provide a base of knowledge and skill to assure safe entrylevel practice. Continued competency must be maintained throughout a practitioner's career. Lifelong learning is an individual and professional responsibility.  \nBased on these principals we have established three categories of r","cbCaioeIk4bTH2VZ","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaioeIk4bTH2VZ","pdf",163751,"English","# Advance Information for NREMT Forum @ NASEMSO\n## Program overview and implementation timeline\n## Approval status and purpose\n## Key question for state EMS officials\n## Continued Competency Program principles\n## Content categories and required hours by provider level","[{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of the Continued Competency Program described in the memo?\",\"answer\":\"The memo explains that the NREMT Continued Competency Program is proposed to replace current National EMS Recertification requirements, supporting ongoing competency and maintaining National EMS Certification.\"},{\"question\":\"When will the new program be implemented and when are providers expected to recertify?\",\"answer\":\"Implementation is planned for 2016, and the memo states recertification will be required in 2018 for those due to recertify.\"},{\"question\":\"How are required hours分为 national, local, and individual categories for each EMS provider level?\",\"answer\":\"The program defines NCCR as 50% of required hours, LCCR as 25%, and ICCR as 25%.
