The program
You don't start from a blank page.
Pipeline's DORs, training plans, and checklists come from years of real field-training data across EMS agencies, the way FTOs actually rate, comment, and teach. Your program is rebuilt on that foundation, with best practice filling the gaps.
Most agencies ask us the same question. What should we be doing?
This is the answer. Plans, DORs, and checklists built from how FTOs across the country actually rate, comment, and teach. Tweak it to your program.
Training plans by level
EMT, paramedic, and internal upgrades. Observation, supervised, lead, clearance.
The entrustment DOR
One question per domain: how much did the FTO have to do? Five levels against the phase's expected band, so on track is computed, never clicked.
Skills and checklists
The calls and skills a trainee has to see before they work alone, and nothing that's only there to be tracked.
The clearance record
What has to be true, and signed, before someone works alone.
It's a place to start, not an authoritative source. Your medical director, your protocols, and your FTOs shape the final version.
Your field guide, DORs, and checklists, rebuilt by our team.
If you have a field guide, we start there and keep what works. If all you have is a binder and a good FTO, we start from ours. Live in 2 to 3 weeks either way.
Option A
You do it
We hand you the program and stay a call away.
Option B
We do it with you
A working session a week until your first cohort starts. Most agencies pick this one.
Option C
We do it for you
Send the field guide. We send back your program, live.
Kickoff to your next cohort.
1
Kickoff
One call. We take your field guide, DORs, and checklists.
2
We build it
Your program rebuilt on Pipeline's EMS training content, with best practice filling the gaps. Live in 2 to 3 weeks.
3
Go live, stay close
Launch with your next cohort, with us on the line. Regular check-ins through year one.
There's no wrong time to start. A cohort next week, in six weeks, or in six months all work.
We train your FTOs ourselves.
One session, on your schedule, with your program on the screen. Then a working session before each cohort until you don't need one. Give us the meanest FTOs you can find.
“You guys have been nothing but responsive.”
An EMS team on the other end.

“Without the software, we'd still be stone tablets trying to grunt our way through evaluation.”
Once field training is on Pipeline, the next step is already there.
Agencies that start with field training tend to keep going: post-release DORs, clinical review, promotional pathways, reporting back to medical direction. Same record, same standard. It's the next logical step, not a new project.
“We love data. We've always been evidence based, and this is giving numerical values to something that is a lot of back and forth traditionally for us.”
