Registration from another Jurisdiction (other than Canada)

A Request for Registration from another Jurisdiction (other than Canada) is defined as a practitioner who is currently registered as an Emergency Medical Technician (EMT), or equivalent, in good standing in another jurisdiction other than Canada for a period of at least 12 months. The purpose of this process is to ensure all practitioners entering from another jurisdiction other than Canada are evaluated equally and fairly.

In order for an application to be considered from another jurisdiction other than Canada, the applicant must submit the following **:

A completed Application for Registration form

Registration Fees for 2009 ($290.00 - non-refundable; we do not accept cash or cheques)

Copy of New Brunswick Class 4 drivers license (or equivalent)

Copy of a valid CPR level C card (issued within one year)

All applicants will be evaluated utilizing the National Occupational Competency Profile (2001), developed jointly by the Paramedic Association of Canada and Canadian Medical Association.

An applicant who is registered/certified/licensed in another jurisdiction other than Canada will be granted registration/certification/licensure in an equivalent occupation, under the following conditions:

The educational program meets or exceeds EMT curriculum;

The applicant is of good standing in their current jurisdiction;

The applicant has met the continuing competency requirements imposed by the jurisdiction in which the paramedic is registered/certified/licensed;

For those applicants who have not practiced within one year prior to their application for registration/certification/licensure may be required to undergo additional assessment and/or education (see Reactivation of Registration)
Evaluation and documentation will be completed within 30 days of receipt of appropriate documents. If for any reason the applicant disputes or disagrees with the determination of the Registrar, application in writing to the Registrar for review of the decision may be requested.
