This certification provides paramedics with a globally recognized standard of competency in emergency medical care.
Who it's for

What you get
By obtaining this certification, you gain a credential that demonstrates your competency in emergency medical care to a global standard.
What it costs you
You will need to pay an application fee, the exact amount of which varies. Additionally, you must invest the time to pass both a psychomotor exam (a practical test of your physical skills) and a cognitive exam (a written test of your knowledge).

It is important to remember that this is a certification of your skills, not a license. Having this does not automatically give you a legal license to practice medicine in your specific country.
