Special Focus Issues

At least four times a year, the IAEM Bulletin includes a Special Focus section on a selected topic of interest to emergency managers.

2008 Special Focus Issues

February 2008, "Campus Safety" (copy deadline: January 10, 2008) We are interested in articles about campus safety programs: what works, what doesn’t, lessons learned, funding issues, and more. Articles could be from the perspective of university/college emergency managers or from a student’s perspective.

May 2007, "EM Higher Education in the Future" (copy deadline: April 10, 2008) We are interested in articles about the kinds of curriculum needed in EM, homeland security and business continuity higher educational programs. From the private sector, we want to know what kinds of EM knowledge and skills employers expect from graduates of an EM, homeland security or business continuity higher education program.

July 2008, "Allied Organizations" (copy deadline: June 10, 2008) We are interested in articles from organizations that are partners/affiliates with IAEM, telling about the work of their organizations and why it is important to emergency managers. We are looking for as many articles from partners/affiliates as we can acquire, with the idea of posting an extra-large online edition/publication with all articles of interest as an IAEM member resource.

October 2008, "Putting a New Spin on Emergency Management" (copy deadline: September 10, 2008) The theme for the October 2008 special focus issue matches the theme of the IAEM 56th Annual Conference & EMEX 2008. Extra copies of this issue will be handed out with the conference registration packets.
