EMS Education: Slippage

Leadership succession in EMS education programs rarely goes to plan, so some number of high-functioning programs get burnt to the ground every year.

We aim to change that.

• Turnover of EMS Program Directors is approaching 40% annually. In the vast majority of those cases, the education program is left to rebuild from scratch. 
• The process has been called “an archeological dig for records” from the prior program director.

How does EMS as a whole ever advance if we keep doing this?

Sterling Credentials is building the world’s first EMS-EDS (Education Documentation System) to:

1. Partner with you in providing educational value to students (using known brain physiology and taking cues from “medicine-proper” to provide even more productive tools)
2. Catch all the regulatory things which can “slip through the cracks” when you are overloaded.
3. Provide ongoing monitoring of your affiliate relationships ensuring you don’t have a molehill turn into a relationship-ending mountain.
4. Be a central repository for all of your institutional wisdom making any audit or inspection a breeze.  This is also a critical component to succession planning–never see the program you’ve worked so hard to build burnt to the ground!
5. “One-Click CSSR”–our big bodacious dream.

We are building the rising tide from which ALL EMS clinicians can be lifted.

Nuts and bolts (the “tracking”)

We all know how a cardiac arrest should generally work…Sterling Credentials is like that--it works just like you think it should because it flows just like our real life “work-flow” in the classroom.  Everything on the student side is designed for “workforce preparation” and “clinician development.”

Change is scary.

• Your staff knows how to use whatever you have now (Sterling is unbelievably quick to learn and today’s digital natives expect nothing less).
• Your very career (accreditation) hangs in the balance (so you should have someone in your corner who has lived it)
  
• What if it is unreliable?  (Just ask any current user about us, our service, and our focus on the people who depend on us.)

Join us as we build the future of EMS.

You can try us no risk…WHO does that?

Get to know Sterling over a single semester with an EMT cohort.  WARNING: One hundred percent of programs who’ve used this offer have stayed with us.
