NAEMT’s Community Paramedicine course series focuses on the knowledge and skills that paramedics need to succeed as community paramedics. As paramedics are increasingly depended upon to provide preventive as well as emergent and urgent care, these courses are outstanding education for all paramedics. The series is also designed to prepare paramedics to take the IBSC Community Paramedic certification (CP-C) exam.
The courses within the series may be taught individually or combined to create a semester-long community paramedicine program. Individual courses within the series include:
- Motivational Interviewing

- Mental Health and Substance Abuse
- Geriatrics
- Pediatrics/Children with Special Health Care Needs
