I think they already have, at least at my school. I just finished their EMT program and took the NREMT exam, not the state. And I looked at their site and it said that at the end of their medic program you could take the NR for that too. I am currently taking a&p and am going to start their medic program but it doesn't start until sep, so I am trying to get a job until then. I just don't know that it is worth the extra $$ to try and get into an accredited school, if I can still get the national at another school.
