How do I keep track of my EMS credentials when changing jobs?
A new employer, a PRN job or a flight program asks for the same stack: your state license, NREMT, ACLS, PALS, BLS and PHTLS, and in flight FP-C or CCP-C, usually as PDFs, usually this week. Have them in one place before anyone asks, and send them all at once.
Before the offer
- Get every card in one placeIncluding the ones in the old agency's system. Once you leave, that system is theirs.
- Check the datesAnything expiring inside the next 90 days will come up in onboarding. Renew it first, or know the answer.
- Know your state situationMoving states? Whether the new state requires NREMT, offers it as a pathway or runs its own cycle changes what you need. Every state is on the recertification guide.
When they ask
One email, every file attached, under a subject line with your name and "Professional Credentials". Or one PDF packet. Or a link that needs no account. That is what Share all does, and it is the reason CurrentCert exists.

Questions
What does a new EMS employer usually ask for?
The state license, the National Registry card, BLS, ACLS and PALS, PHTLS or ITLS, and any specialty card the role needs, such as FP-C or CCP-C in flight. Agencies add their own requirements on top; the record should hold those too.
Does my old agency's system come with me?
No. Agency credential software holds the roster for the agency and stays with the agency. If your only copies live there, get them out before your last day. A record you own, whether a folder or an app, is the one that comes with you.
How does Share all work?
Open Share credentials in CurrentCert, choose Share all or select the ones you need, and pick a delivery method. Email sends one message with every selected credential file attached. Credential packet generates a single PDF with a professional summary, the credential list, expiration dates and the documents. A secure link lets a recipient view the record without creating an account.
