On July 1, 2024, the NREMT will transition from the current psychomotor examinations to the new AEMT Certification Examination and new Paramedic Certification Examination. According to the NREMT, this will "bring Paramedic and AEMT examinations in line with most other health-based professions, which have made similar updates in recent years, and matches the best research and science that’s currently available." What should educators be doing to prepare? How should students understand the change? What do we think will happen once the change is made? Hosts Maia Dorsett and Hilary Gates interview Paul Rosenberger, NREMT Examinations Content Manager and David Fifer, Assistant Professor in the Paramedic Program at Eastern Kentucky University to get the answers.
