Looking to get your I/C endorsement in Tennessee? This course serves as an option for the required initial education component for new EMT or Paramedic I/C. It can also serve as a renewal option for all instructor endorsements. This course also supersedes the required EMR Instructor course.
Course applicants should meet all of the requirements for I/C endorsement, with the exception of student teaching hours, prior to the course date. Successful completion of the pre-course and in-person session is required to receive a course completion certificate.
Admission fee includes required pre-course modules, LIVE course, course binder, and snacks/lunch.
Admission fee does not include:
Required Course Textbook (Foundations of Education: An EMS Approach 3rd Edition; ISBN: 9781284145168)
Travel and/or lodging to/from course
A confirmation email will be received upon enrollment into the I/C course. The email will contain a confirmation of the event date, time, and course location as well as an access code/link for the required pre-course materials. Attendees must complete all portions of the required pre-course work in TEMSEA's online learning center. The pre-course certificate of completion is required for entry into the LIVE course. Attendees should allow for ample time to complete the pre-course work. Failure to complete will result in forfeiture of course dues.
