Delivered self-paced on the EPS Portal from Lanham, Maryland, it uses MARCH to organize recognition of massive hemorrhage, airway and breathing problems, circulation concerns, hypothermia, and head injury while explaining what a general helper may safely do. It covers continued bleeding, tourniquet reassessment, packing principles, self-aid, chest wound options, reporting changes, and cooperation with EMS when several people are injured. Content draws on Hartford Consensus public preparedness principles and explains selected TCCC and TECC concepts without conferring either certification; START is presented for recognition of professional triage, not independent triage decisions. Tuition is $25.00 and is not refundable. The official HCC-100G Course Syllabus, Version 1.0 is included in Module 1. Five modules cover from basics to MARCH; massive hemorrhage, advanced; airway and respiration; circulation, hypothermia, and the head; and more than one casualty. Completion requires all five modules, every 30-item module quiz passed at 80 percent or higher with unlimited attempts, the 50-item final examination passed at 90 percent or higher within two attempts, and the 10-item course sign-off. The EPS Hemorrhage Control Certification is serial-numbered, recorded in the EPS registry, verifiable through the EPS Portal, and valid for two years; renewal requires the current course at published tuition. It documents assessed knowledge, not hands-on competency, and is not a license of any kind, a medical qualification, a first aid or CPR card, or a TCCC or TECC certification. It authorizes no invasive procedure, nasal airway insertion, pelvic binder or junctional device application, force, or hot or warm zone entry. MARCH does not override dispatcher, CPR, or AED instructions. HCC-100G is governed by EPS-DIR-001 and its Course Syllabus, Version 1.0, and builds on BCB-100G. Samuel Romanzo, Training Director.
