Student Course Completion Checklist

Follow the required steps for your EMR, EMT, or AEMT course and access the approved forms and guidance used during completion review.

Before you start

Not every step applies to every student. EMR students ordinarily have no ambulance externship requirement. EMT and AEMT students complete their assigned clinical/field activities and any additional requirements in the applicable syllabus.

Clearance is not automatic

This page is a resource checklist, not a live record of your status. Submitting forms does not establish completion or certification eligibility; TRM must verify academic, skills, clinical, documentation, and applicable administrative requirements.

Your student pathway

Complete Your Requirements

Follow the steps that apply to your program. Your course syllabus and TRM staff will identify any additional requirements.

ALL PROGRAMS

Review Your Handbook & Program Manual

Review the current Student Handbook, your assigned syllabus and program manual, and the policies for your cohort. The linked 2026 Program Manual is a public reference copy.

ALL PROGRAMS

Upload Required Documents

Upload assigned identification, CPR/BLS, immunization, and onboarding documents. TRM must review required records before clinical placement.

ALL PROGRAMS

Complete Assigned Skills & Screening

Attend assigned skills/labs. When required, TRM conducts drug screening and initiates Checkr enrollment at designated in-person sessions. Hybrid AEMT students follow their integrated lab schedule. Screening clearance is required before patient-facing shifts.

EMT & AEMT

Request Your Clinical or Field Shifts

EMT: at least 36 ambulance hours and 10 patient contacts. AEMT: at least 48 hospital hours, 48 ambulance hours, and 25 contacts. Sites may require more; requesting a shift does not confirm placement.

WHEN APPLICABLE

Finish Clinical Documentation

Complete assigned PCRs, procedure/skills records, and feedback. Your preceptor completes your Clinical Student Evaluation. EMR students follow course-specific instructions.

ALL PROGRAMS

Complete Your Course Evaluation

Submit your end-of-course evaluation and finish required coursework, exams, skills, and competencies before requesting the final file review.

For the governing clearance, screening, field-placement, and documentation requirements, review the Clinical Eligibility Policy and your approved course syllabus.

EMT & AEMT • When assigned

Clinical Documentation Resources

Students submit their assigned PCR and preceptor-feedback records; preceptors submit Clinical Student Evaluations. Do not enter patient names, identifying details, or protected health information in public or unapproved forms. These records support evaluation but do not replace formal competency verification.

PCR Documentation Guide

Read documentation requirements and grading guidance.

Open Resource

Submit Patient Care Reports

Submit assigned educational PCR documentation without patient names or other identifying information.

Open Resource

Evaluate Your Preceptor

Students provide feedback about their preceptor.

Open Resource

Clinical Student Evaluation

Your preceptor completes the evaluation of your clinical/field performance.

Open Resource

Final step • After all other requirements

Request Your NREMT File Check

Submit only after completing assigned coursework, examinations, in-person skills, required clinical/field experiences, documentation, evaluations, and applicable administrative/financial requirements. TRM reviews your records and determines whether you are eligible for course completion processing and subsequent NREMT steps.

Request Final File Review

A TRM file review is not certification by NREMT or Texas DSHS. External testing and certification requirements still apply.
