A Better Approach to EMS Accreditation

CEAS was founded on a simple idea: accreditation should focus on education quality, not revenue extraction. Every standard is published, every fee is transparent, and every provider gets due process.

Zero per-student fees

$0 Per-Student Fees

Other accreditors charge for every student completion submitted. CEAS charges nothing per student — completion reporting is included with accreditation. Your growth shouldn’t cost you more.

Published standards

Published Standards

All 12 accreditation standards are publicly available with detailed compliance guidance. No surprises, no secret criteria, no moving goalposts. Read the full Accreditation Manual.

Open data submission

Open Data Submission

Submit student completions via REST API, CSV upload, or manual entry. Use whatever LMS you prefer — Moodle, Canvas, Blackboard, or your own. No proprietary lock-in.

Conflict-free reviews

Conflict-Free Reviews

Every reviewer must disclose relationships. Conflicted reviewers are disqualified. Providers can challenge reviewer assignments. Our conflict-of-interest policy is published.

Guaranteed due process

Guaranteed Due Process

Written notice, 30-day response window, independent appeal panel, right to hearing with counsel. Enforcement is proportional — graduated from coaching to revocation.
