EMS & Trauma Education
The NJ Department of Health and Senior Services--Office of EMS (OEMS) must pre-approve all programs that will award continuing education units (CEUs) to NJ EMTs. The National Registry of EMTs accepts NJ EMT CEUs on a one-for-one basis. OEMS offers a catalog and search feature of approved courses on its learming management system (LMS)
A few special elective programs have standing approval from OEMS. One such example is CPR renewal. OEMS allows EMT-Bs to use selected professional-level CPR certification for 2 elective CEUs toward recertification. The EMT must keep track of this credit as it is not automatically registered in their LMS record.
