CEM®/AEM Preparatory Course and Exam
Chair: Arthur Rabjohn

The International Association of Emergency Managers (IAEM) created the certification program for emergency managers to raise and maintain professional standards; it is a program to certify achievements within the profession.

The CEM ® and AEM program is for professionals with comprehensive emergency management responsibility. These practitioners integrate all actors in all phases of emergency activity for all types of disasters. The “comprehensive” aspect of Comprehensive Emergency Management includes all four phases of disaster activity: mitigation, preparedness, response and recovery for all risks—attack, man-made, and natural—in a federal-state-local operating partnership.

The course is intended for professional emergency managers interested in obtaining the Certified Emergency Manager® (CEM®) designation.
