National Registry ALS Psychomotor Exam
The National Registry has notified the states that the ALS psychomotor examination will end effective June 30, 2024. Any student who has not passed the cognitive examination as of that date will be transitioned to the new cognitive examination and the Program Director will be verifying psychomotor competency. NREMT will be cancelling all ALS test sites scheduled after that date. OEMS will provide further information to Program Directors on how to mark competency in their Program Director accounts.
