Upon submission of a completed application for re-certification, the applicant may use any of the following EXCEPT:

The comprehensive skills exam process is not an option available for re-certification upon submission of a completed application. Re-certification for EMTs typically focuses on the completion of continuing education (CE) requirements, which can include coursework and experiences that align with the standards set by regulatory bodies or state requirements.

The continuing education re-certification process allows applicants to demonstrate their knowledge and skills through CE hours rather than a comprehensive skills exam. Similarly, the NREMT re-certification process often emphasizes the accumulation of CEUs to maintain certification without requiring a new skills exam, and the formal course re-certification process also supports this educational approach.

In contrast, the comprehensive skills exam is usually a component of an initial certification or an advanced assessment rather than a method for maintaining current certification. This reflects a focus on ongoing education and competency verification rather than repeating a comprehensive skills assessment for re-certification.
