CE-SOLUTIONS

What CE-SOLUTIONS does

CE Solutions is a privately held, Texas-domiciled online continuing education provider serving Emergency Medical Services (EMS) and Fire professionals across all 50 U.S. states. Founded in 1997 in Burnet, Texas, the company delivers CAPCE-accredited (effective April 2025) and NREMT-accepted continuing education for EMR, EMT, AEMT, and Paramedic certification levels, plus TCFP-approved Fire CE for Texas firefighters. The platform reports 200,000+ registered members since inception and 10M+ CEUs awarded, with named state approvals including Texas DSHS Provider #101129 and California EMS Authority Provider #94-4601.

The core product is a hosted Learning Management System (LMS) that delivers video-on-demand and article-based self-paced courses (F3 designation) with mandatory course timers, pop-up attendance verification, automated exam scoring, instant PDF certificate generation, and where system conditions allow, automatic reporting of completed CEUs to the National Registry of EMTs. Individual products are priced as annual packages — a $159 full state recertification package, a $109 24 CEU package, a $25 Texas EMS Jurisprudence exam, and specialty courses such as DICO training, NREMT Remedial, and California mandatory training (Epinephrine, Naloxone, Glucometer). For agencies and departments, the company offers a multi-administrator dashboard, assignment management, centralized training records, an external certification vault, customizable exams, department-specific topic creation, and Net-30 terms for established credit accounts.

The business model is a hybrid of self-serve product-led growth for individual providers and direct institutional sales for departments/agencies, with distribution driven primarily by organic search, state-requirements landing pages, a content-marketing blog, and accreditation/credentialing badges (CAPCE, NREMT, Texas DSHS, California EMS Authority, TCFP). The company is independently owned with no disclosed institutional investment, no parent company, and no M&A activity, operating with 1-10 employees and a 29-year continuous operating history.

Emerging players

• Pocket Prep: Pocket Prep offers mobile-first certification exam prep and continuing education across healthcare, public safety, and skilled trades. It is an emerging player that overlaps with CE Solutions on NREMT prep and EMS test preparation, particularly via mobile channels where CE Solutions has no app presence.
• MedicEd: MedicEd provides online EMS continuing education and refresher courses for EMTs and paramedics seeking NREMT recertification. It is an emerging player with a narrower product set but overlapping CAPCE-accredited individual-provider CE positioning.

Direct peers

• ProTrainings: ProTrainings offers online continuing education and certification across healthcare, EMS, and safety verticals, including BLS/ACLS and workplace safety courses. It competes with CE Solutions for individual healthcare-provider CE spend via a similar self-serve online model.
• FireRescue1 Academy: FireRescue1 Academy (by Praetorian Digital) delivers online fire and EMS continuing education accepted by state agencies and CAPCE. It overlaps directly with CE Solutions on individual and department subscription CE for firefighters and EMTs.
• Lexipol: Lexipol provides policy, training, and continuing education content to fire, EMS, law enforcement, and corrections agencies. It competes for the same department-level training contracts as CE Solutions' Department/Agency LMS offering and serves overlapping public-safety buyers.
• EMS1 Academy: EMS1 Academy (by Praetorian Digital) is a CAPCE-accredited online EMS continuing education platform serving EMTs, AEMTs, and Paramedics for state and NREMT recertification. It is a direct head-to-head competitor in the same individual-provider CE category as CE Solutions.
• Vector Solutions / TargetSolutions: Vector Solutions (owner of TargetSolutions) is the dominant competitor in online public-safety training, offering EMS, Fire, and police continuing education to agencies nationwide. It directly overlaps with CE Solutions on LMS features, department deployment, and CAPCE-accepted content, but at significantly greater scale.

Broad incumbents

• 360training: 360training provides online regulatory and continuing education across multiple industries including healthcare, safety, and financial services. It is a broader incumbent that competes for EMS and safety CE spend, though its core focus extends well beyond public safety.
• Relias: Relias is a large healthcare and human services workforce training platform serving hospitals, EMS agencies, and behavioral health providers. It is a broader incumbent that overlaps with CE Solutions on EMS agency training but as part of a much wider healthcare portfolio.
• Jones & Bartlett Learning: Jones & Bartlett Learning is a major publisher of healthcare and EMS educational content, textbooks, and adaptive learning tools. It is a broader incumbent whose EMT/Paramedic curriculum and digital learning products compete for institutional and individual EMS learner spend.
