ALS and BLS Academies - These academies are new this year and offer students the ability to find all of the required ALS and BLS continuing education credits with greater ease.

EMS Leadership and Management Certificate - EMS officers are encouraged to take classes to help them lead and manage their EMS agencies. Earn the EMS Leadership and Management Certificate by taking eight classes that are identified with the Star of Life icon next to the course title. Each half-day counts as two classes. You may sign up to receive a certificate by going to the third floor of the Marriott. Once your attendance is verified, you will receive your certificate in the mail. We will only send you a certificate if you request one. Please direct any questions on the EMS Leadership and Management Certificate to: Carol.Morrow@vdh.virginia.gov.
Hands-On - All hands-on classes are denoted by the hand icon.
Health & Safety - A new track this year that focuses on the health and safety of EMS providers.
Hot Topics - Just like the hands-on courses, we have included courses that we consider hot topics in EMS. We have denoted these courses by placing a little bomb next to the course title.
