An Act relative to EMT certification of veterans and military medics

This bill allows veterans and military medics in Massachusetts to receive Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) certification without repeating state training if their military education is deemed equivalent. It requires the state department to create new standards for comparing military training with state requirements and to issue waivers for any courses found to be substantially similar. Applicants must provide proof of their military training to receive these exemptions, and the department will issue a verification document confirming the equivalency of their credentials.
