There is NO recognized designation of EMT-T. It was the fantasy of a few at CONTOMS to designate graduates of that course which now no longer exists. The national registry never recognized it. It was unfortunate that people that took that course thought they held a certification that didn't really exist......
The state of CA is publishing a set of guidelines for what defines a Tactical Medic that is far beyond what any other state has done so far....stay tuned and check the EMSA and POST web sites in CA.
