Hybrid EMR 2025

The GW Medical Faculty Associates Department of Emergency Medicine is excited to announce a hybrid Emergency Medical Responder Program for Fall 2025. This program is an 18-week program for those interested in learning the skills necessary to handle an emergency until the arrival of EMS. The class is perfect for people interested in emergency preparedness, or individuals with emergency response responsibilities in their workplace (industrial health and safety, wildland firefighting, law enforcement, or armed security).  This course will also provide you with the basic healthcare skills necessary to work as a medical assistant. The schedule is designed to meet the demands of a working professional or student, with a combination of online class hours and short in-person sessions each week. 

Taught by practicing GWDEMTC clinicians and educators, students will complete the didactic and practical portions of the National Registry Emergency Medical Responder (NREMR) program with both lectures and hands-on simulations. 

After successfully completing the course, students will be eligible to sit for the National Registry of Emergency Medical Responders (NREMR) computer-based certification examination. For more information on requirements for the National Registry, please visit the NREMT website.

For additional questions or information, please contact the Training Center at 202.741.2958.
