General CEM®/AEM Information

IAEM created the Certified Emergency Manager® and Associate Emergency Manager Programs to raise and maintain professional standards. It is an internationally recognized program that certifies achievements within the emergency management profession.

CEM® and AEM certification is a peer review process administered through the International Association of Emergency Managers. Candidates do not have to be an IAEM member to be certified, although IAEM membership does offer you a number of benefits that can assist you through the certification process. Certification is maintained in five-year cycles. The CEM® and AEM Programs are served by a CEM® Commission, which is composed of emergency management professionals, including representatives from allied fields, education, military and private industry. 

Development of the CEM® and AEM Programs was supported by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), the National Emergency Management Association (NEMA), and a host of allied organizations.

Please Note: The FEMA PDS Completion Certificate is acceptable toward meeting the "Training" requirement for the CEM® credential, but it is not acceptable toward meeting the "Professional Contribution" requirement for the CEM® credential.

Candidates for CEM® Commission

Each year the CEM® Commission looks for candidates for two to four openings for the CEM Commission. The CEM® Commission sets policies and procedures governing the certification program, and reviews packets of applicants for the Certified Emergency Manager® (CEM®) and Associate Emergency Manager (AEM) credentials. Commissioners who are local practitioners must have earned the CEM®. If you’re interested in serving, submit a letter of interest and a summary of your credentials to IAEM Headquarters by July 1 each year.
