Conferences & EVENTS


Each year, the North Dakota EMS Association hosts an annual conference and tradeshow, regional conferences, a management conference, and other workshops, webinars, townhalls and other events that benefit North Dakota EMS providers.

Conference Discounts for Members

As a member of NDEMSA, members receive substantial discounts to our Annual North Dakota EMS Rendezvous Conference and Tradeshow, as well as our four regional conferences.

Our Annual North Dakota EMS Rendezvous Conference and Tradeshow is held each April in Bismarck. Each year, the Conference and Tradeshow attracts nearly 850 attendees. The participants have the opportunity to interact with over 60 vendors and attend sessions instructed by more than 15 nationally renowned EMS instructors.

NDEMSA Regional Conferences are held during the fall and winter months, typically in Medora, Fargo, Minot, and Grand Forks. These conferences provide attendees a more intimate setting in which they have the opportunity to receive hands-on, practical education, and skills review.

Earn All Your NCCR Hours at Regional Conferences

North Dakota has been participating in the National Continued Competency Program (NCCP) with the National Registry of EMTs (NREMT) for several years now.

While most providers know what topics are required, but finding enough hours in the right categories hasn’t always been simple. To address this, NDEMSA helps remove that uncertainty.

All four regional conferences follow a consistent pattern of NCCR hours offered. This predictable format helps members plan and complete their two-year training cycle more easily.

EMTs can fulfill all required NCCR hours in a few ways:

  • Attend the same regional conference two years in a row;

  • Attend two different regional conferences in the same year (one from Track A and one from Track B);

  • Or attend one regional conference plus the state conference.

View the schedule at-a-glance for the regional conferences here. If you have questions about these events, contact the NDEMSA office.
