(2) Possess a valid certificate or license as an advanced emergency medical technician from another state or successfully complete a course of training and study equivalent to the material contained in the Indiana advanced emergency medical technician training course.
(3) Successfully pass the Indiana advanced emergency medical technician written and practical skills examinations as set forth and approved by the commission.
(b) An application for certification must be postmarked or delivered to the agency office within six (6) months after a request for reciprocity.
(c) A nonresident of Indiana who possesses a certificate or license as an advanced emergency medical technician that is valid in another state or a valid registration with the National Registry and is affiliated with an Indiana certified advanced emergency medical technician provider organization may apply to the agency for temporary certification as an advanced emergency medical technician. After the agency receives a valid application and verification of valid status, the agency may issue temporary certification valid for:
(1) the duration of the applicant's current certificate or license; or
(2) a period not to exceed six (6) months after the date the reciprocity request is approved by the director;

whichever is shorter. A temporary license automatically expires and becomes inactive when an advanced emergency medical technician provider becomes nonaffiliated, which the advanced emergency medical technician shall notify the agency of within forty-eight (48) hours after becoming nonaffiliated. A person receiving temporary certification may apply for full certification using section 1 of this rule.
