2017-2018 Annual Fees Now Due!

Staff Contact: Ruth Crump, ruth@coaemsp.org or 214-703-8445, x116

Programs received an invoice for Annual Accreditation Fees in the amount of $1,700 during the week of May 1. This invoice came from Ruth Crump ( ruth@coaemsp.org).

If you did not receive an invoice by May 8, first, check your spam folder to see if the invoice ended up there; if not, notify Ruth: ruth@coaemsp.org, so that she can email it to you immediately.

The due date for the invoice is July 1. This applies to ALL programs that either hold CAAHEP accreditation or the CoAEMSP Letter of Review, or are working toward the LoR.

To avoid additional processing fees, payment is due on or before July 31.  

NOTE: An Additional Processing Fee invoice of $500 will be sent the first week in August for past due Annual Accreditation Fees.

If your program requires that a Purchase Order appear on the invoice, email this request immediately to ruth@coaemsp.org.

The CoAEMSP is increasing its site visitor cadre and is seeking Paramedic educators and physicians to become site visitors for CoAEMSP. The training workshop will be hosted on November 30-December 1 in Minneapolis-
St. Paul for those applicants who have been selected to be site visitors.

FAQs were compiled to help answer the questions you may have regarding the workshop and can be found here.

Application (updated) can be found here. 

Reminder! Submit Files to CoAEMSP through ShareFile or Email Only!
Staff Contact: Karen Franks, karen@coaemsp.org or 214-703-8445, x111

There are two methods to submit documents to the CoAEMSP: email and ShareFile. ShareFile works well when files are too large to email. ShareFile, by Citrix, is a secure method to share and transfer files.

As the need arises, an invitation to log into ShareFile is sent to the program director or site visitor from the CoAEMSP. Each program and site visitor will have their own ShareFile account.

Documents submitted via Google docs, Dropbox, or any other method will not be accepted.  

If you have questions or need to submit files via ShareFile and do not yet have an account, please email karen@coaemsp.org
