As of January 1, 2010 courses leading to EMS licensure that are held in Maine must be conducted by a Maine EMS Authorized Training Center. The Maine State EMS office does not directly deliver EMS licensure classes.
All Paramedic programs must also be CAAHEP accredited, a process separate from Maine EMS training center licensure. A training center must be licensed by Maine EMS as well as accredited by CAAHEP to conduct paramedic classes leading to NREMT certification.
