  • CEH Roster Revised September 10, 2008 (PDF)
  • CEH Roster Revised September 10, 2008 - fill-in form in MS Word format

    In order to ensure that CEHs are entered into the Maine EMS CEH system in a timely manner, return the original roster to the EMS office (that approved the program) within THREE days of completion of the program. The regional EMS office will forward the original roster to Maine EMS for data entry. Program sponsors, instructors and regional offices should keep photocopies of rosters.

    There are two rosters that can be downloaded, one in PDF format and the other in MS Word format. The roster in MS Word format was developed as a form, which allows the user to fill-in certain parts of the roster before printing it.

    Please destroy any old rosters that you may have. The revised CEH rosters must be used for all CEH programs conducted on or after September 10, 2008.

    Reminder: If the correct license number and name are not clearly entered on the roster CEH credit will not be given.
