After March of 2019, all EMS recertifying must do so through the National Continued Competency Program (NCCP). Many of the requirements are similar to National Registry for license renewal but the required hours and categories have changed slightly. Below are my topics categorized according to October 1, 2016 NCCP revision. Some topics may be listed twice due to flexibility of the content. For a complete and comprehensive list, contact me and I can provide a breakdown for each topic in my List of Topics document
