Middlesex Community College is an authorized testing site for Connecticut and NREMT/NREMR psychomotor (practical) examinations. Testing is held on selected Sundays throughout the year under the direction of the Connecticut Office of Emergency Medical Services (OEMS).  Candidates testing in a practical examination must have completed a Connecticut OEMS-approved Emergency Medical Technician course within two years of their exam date, have an expired Connecticut or NREMT certification reinstated, or are completing the examination for endorsement as an EMT.

TESTING FEES: Initial Exam or full retake (five stations): $120 • Retesting (two stations): $80

REGISTRATION: To register go to www.firstapproach.org. There are no in-person registrations at the college or on the day of the exam.

No registration transfers are allowed, so please choose your testing date carefully.
