Overview

The purpose of this registration process is to obtain the required information for Continuing Education Hour approvals through The Commission on Accreditation for Pre-Hospital Continuing Education (CAPCE). Benchmark is an organization accredited by CAPCE for the delivery of nationally accredited pre-hospital continuing education, which allows the Benchmark training classes to be nationally accredited. This national accreditation through CAPCE eliminates the need for the individual course approval of most state EMS agencies.  Our courses are led by EMS subject matter experts to enhance the participant's knowledge to improve patient care outcomes. Delivered live, on-site, our courses provide a non-intimidating educational environment allowing everyone to absorb valuable information.

 Communicable Disease / Virus Transmission

 Exposure to communicable diseases/viruses is an inherent risk in any public location where people are present. Some diseases are more contagious than others and can lead to severe illness and death. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, senior citizens and those with underlying medical conditions are especially vulnerable. Benchmark Medical Services, LLC, its agents, members, contractors, suppliers, and guests cannot guarantee you will not be exposed during or as a result of participating in the on-site courses we provide. Therefore, by participating in an in-person class and any events, classes, or courses that may be related to one of our in-person classes, you voluntarily assume all risks related to exposure to any communicable disease/virus to which you may become exposed and, therefore, permanently hold harmless Benchmark, its volunteers, employees, agents, representatives, members, contractors, suppliers, and guests from all claims, demands, and causes of action which you or any respective heirs, executors, administrators, or assigns have or may have resulted in your voluntary participation.
