OEMS Mobile App
The Virginia Office of EMS (OEMS) is pleased to introduce our updated mobile app, designed to provide EMS providers and educators with convenient, secure access to certification and continuing education information. The app maintains the functionality of the previous version while adding new features to better support certification management and compliance.
The OEMS mobile app is free to download and use. A Quick Guide for the app can be found here.

Important Update: Digital Certification Cards
Effective January 1, 2026, OEMS no longer prints or mails physical certification cards. Certification cards are now issued digitally and are available exclusively through the OEMS Portal and the OEMS mobile app.
Digital certification cards:
-
Are available anytime through the OEMS Portal or mobile app
-
May be viewed on a mobile device or printed on demand if needed
-
Serve as the official certification record issued by OEMS
This transition supports improved efficiency, reduces administrative costs, and ensures providers have immediate access to current certification information.
What This Means for Providers
