HOW DOES THE EVT CERTIFICATION PROGRAM WORK?
The EVT Certification Program offers two options for emergency vehicle technicians to become certified. Option 1: Technicians may choose to take only EVT exams and become certified in the individual test areas. The technician will receive an EVT Test Certificate stating the area(s) in which he/she is certified. Option 2: Technicians may choose to obtain the highest EVT Certification by taking a combination of the EVT exams and the ASE (National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence) exams, or the appropriate Canadian Provincial License. These exams are used to identify the diagnostic and repair knowledge of vehicle maintenance and the specific levels of Emergency Vehicle Technician Certification. Level Certification will be granted to the technician who successfully completes these requirements. Technicians have the option of obtaining Level I, II, or Master EVT Technician in the Fire Apparatus, Ambulance Track, ARFF Vehicle Track and Law Enforcement Vehicle Track. See chart on P
