MERIT Center - Emergency Medical Responder Initial

Your crew deserves better training. Let's make it happen.

North Star Training is bringing the Emergency Medical Responder (EMR) Hybrid Certification Course to Marshall, MN — and we built it to fit the schedule of working firefighters and first responders.

No month-long commitment. No driving to class every week. Just focused online prep on your own time, followed by one action-packed weekend where you put it all together in person at the Merit Center.

🩺 What You'll Walk Away With:

• Minnesota EMSRB Emergency Medical Responder (EMR) certification
• AHA BLS Provider CPR certification
• Hands-on confidence with airway management, bleeding control, CPR, splinting, and more
• Real experience on professional-grade medical manikins and training equipment
• Instruction from NREMT-certified providers who work in the field

📚 How It Works:

Step 1 — Online: Late April 2026, self-paced Jones & Bartlett coursework. Do it from your couch, your firehouse, wherever works.

Step 2 — In Person: One weekend at the Merit Center in Marshall, MN, and you're certified.

✅ May 15–17, 2026 ➤ Friday, May 15: 6:00 PM – 9:00 PM ➤ Saturday, May 16: 8:00 AM – 6:00 PM ➤ Sunday, May 17: 8:00 AM – 2:00 PM

💸 Cost: Billed directly to your department and 100% MBFTE reimbursable — meaning this course costs your members nothing out of pocket.

Spots fill up. If your department needs EMR-certified personnel, now's the time.
