National Association of Emergency Medical Technicians Every state in the United States has a lead EMS agency or state office of EMS that determines requirements of EMS professionals in their state. Some state EMS offices issue licenses to EMS practitioners; others do not. All EMS practitioners are required to complete continuing education classes so they can stay current in medical treatment standards and protocols.
