How NREMT recertification works

The National Registry recertifies EMS clinicians every two years through the National Continued Competency Program, the NCCP. Your continuing education is split across three components: a national component that makes up half your hours, a local or state component, and an individual component. The national component covers core clinical topics set by the Registry. The individual component is flexible, any approved education directly related to EMS patient care.

The local component varies

Some states and regions publish specific local requirements, and where they do, Prodigy builds those requirements directly into your training plan. Where no local topics are specified, those hours are flexible.

How Prodigy fits

Your recertification, handled end to end

Your training plan, built for you

Add your NREMT certification to your Prodigy account and we build your training plan automatically, matched to your license level, with every course mapped to the right NCCP component and category. In states and regions with published local requirements, those are built into your plan too. As you complete courses, your plan updates in real time, so you always know exactly what's left.
