            National Registry reciprocity<\/strong> cannot <\/strong>be used during the re-entry period to regain a Virginia EMS certification.<\/p>\n

            While a provider is within the two-year re-entry eligibility period following expiration of a Virginia certification, they must complete the Virginia re-entry process<\/strong>, which includes:<\/p>\n

              \n

              Completion of any outstanding continuing education hours,<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

              Reciprocity is not an available pathway during re-entry<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

              Once the re-entry eligibility period has ended, the individual is no longer considered a re-entry candidate. At that point, if the individual holds a current National Registry certification<\/strong> and meets all other eligibility requirements, they may pursue certification in Virginia through the reciprocity process<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t

                  After re-entry eligibility ends, you must regain certification through one of the following approved pathways, if eligible:<\/p>\n

                        Successfully regaining National Registry certification does not automatically result in Virginia certification<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

                      • \n

                        Once a current National Registry certification is obtained, you may apply for Virginia certification through the reciprocity process, if eligible.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n
