EMT Renewal/Recertification
What to do before the expiration of your certification
- Complete 40 hours of continued education for an EMT as required by NREMT; OR
- Be currently certified by the NREMT as an EMT.
Provided OEMS has a current email address on file, a renewal notice will be sent six (6) months prior to the expiration of the certification and a final notice will be sent three (3) months prior to the expiration of the certification. If the certification is not renewed within 90 days of the expiration date, the certification will expire and as a result the applicant can no longer practice as an EMS provider. Please see reinstatement requirements.
Documentation Requirements:
-
A completed renewal online application on the Connecticut eLicense website for EMT renewal.
-
Verification of completion, as instructed by the Department, of continued education for an EMT as required by NREMT; OR
-
Current certification of NREMT certification.
