I checked out the modules. They look like solid training. I'll have to go talk to the stripes about getting it approved. At the very least, I can probably get the cost covered and maybe even time counted. Have you attended the training Koolaid?

Thanks Koolaid. Found it on Amazon at a reasonable rip. Time to get to work.

Anyone have any tips on which textbooks would be the most helpful to prepare for the BCCTPC exam. Here is the list on their website: The exam is based on the 17 critical domains of the National TEMS Initiative and Council (NTIC). The following textbooks are recommended: Paramedic Practice...

+1 To this! Exactly what I wanted to hear! Now I need some literature and some Tac/Flight folks to give me some pointers. TP-C Exam, here I come! :)

"From what I know you have to be affiliated with a team to take it." I've been trying to figure this out. The website only lists an active NR or state medic license (of which I have both). The other req'm is 3-4yrs of CCP exp. The agency affiliation is not listed (although I'm sure it may be...

So far this is not an option. My current employer will allow me to practrice at a Basic scope and that's as far as I go right now. As previously mentioned, there is no institution/agecnys that allows ALS without being employed. Ironically, the CalFire engine that responds to calls in my...

Thanks for the info Driver. It sounds like Affiliating should be an option at this point. The recertification is another story. To my dismay, the rule is very rigid with regard to holding Medic cert through NR. Due to strict regulations in the County I currently work in (who can accredit)...

No, I'm not. I found out my agency is not "affiliated". I'm attempting to get them to that status, but it's unclear whether or not that is something I can do. We don't have a Training Officer per say by job title, but I fill that role by teaching CPR and First Aid. Does that mean the NR will...

Anyone.....Anyone.....Bueller.....:sad: Any advice on the best classes to take to re-certify, aside from the necessary acronyms that go with a license (ACLS, ITLS etc...)? Seems like some classes cover more of the "core sections" as defined by NR. What's the best bang for your buck, good...

I've achieved certification as an NRP and recently received my State card here in California. My question pertains to recertification of my National Registry in two years. I work as a Park Ranger and see some calls for service. Though we are considered first responders, our scope is limited...

I have a very limited knowledge on the Refinery Fire responses, but my understanding is that it would count. I'll need someone to confirm this, but here in california, specifically the Bay Area, the refineries are associated. When in Paramedic school, my instructors took a couple of us along...

78 questions in the Prison like Pearson Vue center. Passed, NRP.

More info Here comes the zombie post... I'm in a similar situation as those above. Neither of my jobs are associated agencies. My primary 9-5 as a Park Ranger only involves First Aid CPR AED training (I'm also the instructor) and the second is volunteer time at events, but I can function as...
