FYI - counties out here will have all that stuff on the county ems site. Crazy right?

I don't believe that ICEMA requires EMT-B's to get any additional special certs. Los Angeles County does if you didn't take your EMT class there after 2011. I had to do that to renew my EMT, but ICEMA didn't ask for anything special from anyone on our SAR team. Several of us are certified in different counties.

ETA: Here's the L.A. Expanded Scope class for an example of what some places need:
