CAPCE approved F1, F2, and F5 courses are considered live, instructor led education where an instructor is physically present or virtually instructing in a live format – students, materials, and instructors are present and interacting in real time. CAPCE approved F3 courses are considered distributive education. The National Registry limits the number of distributive education (DE) or F3 courses you can apply to your education.
Distributive education (DE) is defined by the Commission on Accreditation for Prehospital Continuing Education (CAPCE) as “...an educational activity in which the learner, the instructor, and the educational materials are NOT all present at the same time, and students and instructors are not able to interact in real time. CAPCE courses will have an F3 designation in the listed course number. Examples include, but are not limited to, video review, recording of instruction, directed studies, online courses that are not virtual instructor led (VILT F5), etc.).
Sources of education may come from, but not limited to, EMS agencies or employers, national EMS organizations, online education providers, community colleges, private or state colleges or universities, vocational or tech schools, or local EMS programs. EMS conferences, symposiums, and workshops may also be accepted.
All education must be either state EMS office accepted or CAPCE accredited. In addition, some college or university courses may be accepted if there is proof of education in form of a course completion certificate or college transcript and the course directly applies to EMS (Airway, Cardiology, Medical, Trauma, Operations).
