This Advisory permits the resumption of in-person didactic EMS education courses, with social distancing and PPE protection. It also allows for larger psychomotor exams, if applicable social distancing and PPE requirements are met, removing the 10-person cap on psychomotor exams, while also establishing a minimum of 8 candidates per exam.
