H.E.R.O. Training

General Information

The CEU/CE calendar will be a dynamic process which will change frequently.  Any hours listed will be in EST unless otherwise noted.  For our overseas friends we can work within your local time zones to accommodate your personal schedules.

The sessions can be offered in a sequence that will run on multiple occasions giving you the opportunity to pick the most convenient time for you to attend. 

The on-line, live sessions will be broken up into smaller segments and will be offered over a variety of times/dates.  There are a total of 15 sessions for the online option.  

If you are attending while in an 'on-call' status at work and you are called out, credit will be given only for actual hours attended.

Syllabus, outlines and power points will be available when you register for the program for those who like to maintain more detailed records.  You will recieve a certificate of completion for each module.

Cost: $45 for each (3.5) to (4) hour session; $40 for each (3) hour session, $35 for each (1) to (2) hour session. 

If you are in need of the entire 60 hour NCCP program, the cost will be $450.00

For those individuals seeking to challenge the NREMT Examination or need the hours to re-test the examination, we also offer a 48 hour Refresher to meet the NREMT requirements to test out.  This is an online program.  Cost is $400. and will include test prep information.

To Sign up for a Session:

Please sign up here for the session of your choice.  Make sure you list the session number as well as suggestive dates and times on your registration.  We will try to accommodate the days you select as much as possible.  If we cannot do the session on the date/time of your choice, we'll contact you to make arrangments for another time. You will need to register for each session individually.

If you have any questions, please contact Anne Austin Ellerbee.
