Emergency medical services (EMS) programs provide education for at least one of the four levels of EMS provider certification. These levels of certification include:
- Emergency Medical Responder (EMR)
- Emergency medical technician (EMT)
- Advanced emergency medical technician (AEMT)

Education typically includes didactic instruction, psychomotor skills application, and clinical internship in both hospital and prehospital environments under the guidance of a licensed physician acting as the medical director. Curricula may vary due to state-specific modifications, but generally follow the National EMS Education Standards.
