Cognitive Proctored Exams for EMTs and AEMTs
Beginning Tuesday May 12, 2020, Online Proctored cognitive examinations will be an available option for both EMT and AEMT certification levels.
What is an Online Proctored cognitive examination?
- Online Proctored cognitive examinations deliver the EMT or AEMT high stakes certification examination securely from a candidate’s home or office.
- Online Proctored cognitive examinations meet the cognitive examination requirement for National Registry certification.
What does this mean?
- Eligible candidates will be able to select Online Proctored as an examination delivery method via their certification application in their National Registry account.
- Candidates who select Online Proctored will be issued an Authorization To Test (ATT), and will schedule their Online Proctored exam through Pearson VUE as usual.
All Online Proctored examinations are scheduled through Pearson Vue’s OnVUE system, which you can learn about through the following links.
