Renew your EMT, Advanced EMT, or Paramedic certification

Step A (First Step):

• Log into your Training Profile on NREMT.org, for use by all EMS providers in MA. Ensure your profile is up to date with your correct email and mailing addresses.
  • If you have questions about this website, including your username/password, review instructions at NREMT.org or contact the NREMT at support@nremt.org.
• Find your EMS agency under “Agency Affiliations” on your Dashboard. Contact your agency or region for specific instructions and training profile assistance.
  • If you are unaffiliated (not working as an EMT and do not hold NREMT certification), select “Unaffiliated – Region #” based on your region. You may find the regional EMS council for your residential address at the EMS Regions webpage. 
  • You may find it listed as “Unaffiliated-Region [X]”. Additional information is available at Unaffiliated and Inactive recertification instructions (DOC)
  • If you are unaffiliated and have NREMT certification, you will renew as “Inactive”
• Enter and assign education courses and upload documentation. Submit “Recert Application”, including training profile fee.
  • Don’t forget to retain your course completion documentation.
  • Submitting the fee payment is not the same as submitting the training profile. Please make sure you do both. The "submit" button is on the bottom of the "Recert Application" page.
    • Submission fee: $29 (Basic), $30 (Advanced), $37 (Paramedic)
  • Ensure all education is completed and meets requirements before submitting.

Step B (Second Step):

The Office of Emergency Medical Services uses the Health Professions (eLicensing) system for all applications. 

To submit your state recertification application and $125 fee:

• Sign into the eLicensing website and select “Renew Now” on your certification. Complete the application, verify NREMT information, and submit the $125 recertification fee. EMTs due for One Year Alignment will pay the prorated $62.50 fee.  
  • Please ensure your profile is up to date with your current email and mailing address. 
• If you have difficulty signing into this system, you may request assistance at the eLicensing Help Desk.  

For additional instructions, please visit Health Professions Licensing System User Guide for information on how to get started. If you have questions about this website, contact oems.recert@mass.gov or visit our online eLicensure Help Center.

Recertification application payments may be submitted using a credit/debit card, or ACH (eCheck). An additional processing fee may be charged, in addition to the fees noted above, depending on your form of payment. eCheck (ACH) payments do not have a fee. Returned payments incur a $15 fee (including returns for insufficient funds, wrong account number and credit card chargeback).
