- Join a squad: To be licensed in Vermont, you’ll need to have your national certification and be affiliated with a Vermont EMS agency. Contact your local agency to find out how to join their squad and what a typical membership and schedule looks like. Your local EMS squad may be able to offer a ride-along and can support your training efforts.Find your local squad
- Sign up for your local EMT class: The first step toward certification is to take an Emergency Medical Responder (EMR) or Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) course.
