We can help you apply for an extension if we feel your reason is valid, however it is very rare that it is accepted. You normally have 3 years to renew, so don’t waste time and sign up for your renewal on time!

All of our courses are geared towards learning by doing and this is even more true for the tactical courses. The level of stress created by the scenarios in addition to the movement of patients or others can be more demanding. You are responsible for your own health, if you have any doubts contact us before the course, but especially during the course do not play superhero and do not try to exceed your comfort level.
