How the recertification pages are checked

The recertification guide covers 48 states and the National Registry. Every figure on it is meant to trace to the issuing agency, and every page says when it was last checked. This page explains where the information comes from, how it is verified, and what to do when it is wrong.

Sources

• State pages rest on the state EMS office's own website, its administrative code or statute, and its published renewal application. Each page lists its sources at the bottom, with the official renewal page linked where one exists.
• National Registry pages rest on nremt.org's recertification pages for each level and the National Registry's own 2025 NCCP model document.
• Continuing-education vendors are not treated as sources. Where a vendor figure was the only one available, the page said so and was kept out of search indexes until the agency figure was found.

How a renewal link is verified

A renewal link goes on a page only if it passes every one of these checks:

• The domain is the agency's own: a .gov or .us address, or one of the few agency domains that use .org, named individually.
• The page answers a real request with HTTP 200 at the time of the check, not a redirect to a search page or an error.
• The page's title or heading is about renewal, recertification, licensing or certification.
• A handful of links that could not be fetched automatically were opened and read in a browser instead, and are marked as such in the build.

How the figures are verified

Hours, cycles, deadlines and fees were first compiled from published research, then re-read against the agency page or code section. Where the two disagreed, the agency won and the page was rewritten. Pages carry a green Verified box naming what was confirmed and where. Where a figure could not be located in an official source, the page says not located in the source rather than filling the gap.

What is not covered

Arizona, New Jersey are not yet on the guide. Some pages still list open questions in an amber box; those are questions the official source did not answer when it was read.

Update cadence

Every page shows the date it was last reviewed against its sources. Pages are re-checked when an agency publishes a change and on a scheduled review; the date on the page is the last time that happened. The figures were retrieved September 2026.

Corrections

Use the Support link in the footer, and name the page and the official source that contradicts it.

A correction that cites an official source is applied to the page and the review date is updated.

Guidance, not the regulation

These pages are a plain-language map of the rules, written by a working paramedic and maintained by CurrentCert. They are not the regulation and not the agency. Renewal rules change, agencies apply them case by case, and your agency's answer is the one that counts. Confirm with the issuing agency before relying on any figure here.
