Certification Appeals Process

To accelerate your appeal, please send an email to: associationforiemt@gmail.com to advise the association that you have completed this form.

You do not need to send your case studies or video over at this stage. We will contact you regarding this.
It is advisable that you inform your video test subject of the appeal and seek their permission to send the video [in the strictest confidence] to the management of The Association For IEMT Practitioners.

The appeal request is subject to a fee of £45.00 sent by invoice upon receipt of the appeal. The appeal fee is non-refundable.

Appeals must be filed within 15 calendar days of the IEMT trainer's denial of a trainee's eligibility for certification. The trainee will receive an email acknowledging receipt of the IEMT Practitioner Appeal Form within 5 business days of receipt.

To make a final decision, an Appeals Panel comprised of The Association for IEMT Practitioners director and another appointed IEMT Trainer will review the case studies, the reasoning behind the Appeal, and any evidence presented through the Appeal.

The panel will decide whether to uphold or overturn the IEMT Trainer's decision. The decision of the panel is final.

• If the panel reverses the certification denial, the candidate will be awarded certification dated back to the original notice of failure, with all certification rights and privileges. There will be no mention of the certification being awarded based on a review.
• The Panel reserves the right to deny the appeal or to request that the candidate be retrained prior to resubmission of the Assessment Criteria.

The Association for IEMT Practitioners will send a final decision via email to the trainee who submitted the IEMT Practitioner Appeal Form within 30 days of receiving it.

If retraining is required, the trainee has the option of retaking it with the same or a different trainer. Whilst each trainer is offered courses approved by the Association for IEMT Practitioners, they are each treated as individual entities, and the contract between themselves and their paying trainees is not transferable to another trainer.

Thus any discount for retraining is only offered at the individual discretion of each trainer. No discount is automatically transferable between trainers unless those trainers have a prior agreement to do so.
