2-DAY COURSE DESCRIPTION

This seminar is intended either for professionals who already have the CEM credential and need to acquire the CEUs to maintain their CEM.  The presentation has been designed as a follow-up for the Comprehensive 5-Day Training Program for Energy Managers offered by AEE, and is presented by the same instructors as that program. This course is more interactive and addresses several advanced topics, going beyond what was covered in the basic course, or that are new since the materials for the original seminar were developed.  By completing this two-day course, you will earn 1.6 CEU, which is equal to 3.2 credits toward recertification.  A total of 10 credits must be accumulated over a three-year period to maintain CEM certification.

Key Benefits:

  • Prepare for new legislation that could affect your organization
  • Learn about new energy efficiency technologies
  • Increased business efficiencies and profits
  • Energy, water, waste, taxes (and other resource) savings
  • Improved company image and marketing opportunities
