Certified Energy Manager® On-Demand Training Program

A Certified Energy Manager (CEM®) is an individual who optimizes the energy performance of a facility, building or industrial plant. The CEM is a systems integrator for electrical, mechanical, process and building infrastructure, analyzing the optimum solutions to reduce energy consumption using a cost-effective approach. CEM's are often team leaders and help to develop and implement their organizations' energy management strategies. 

About this Program

The Certified Energy Manager On-Demand Training Program offers the full-length version of the CEM program (20+ training hours), through pre-recorded sessions from multiple instructors. Participants will also receive a electronic copy of the workbook to prepare for their exam.

What You Will Learn

  • Learn energy management from a global perspective, but also understand applicable codes, standards, and policies for your region or country.
  • Learn how systems and energy-saving technologies can be used throughout a building, such as HVAC, lighting, motors, boilers, energy storage, CHP, etc.
  • Learn how energy management strategies and practices such as energy audits, or M&V, can help identify energy savings and reduce costs.
  • Understand the economic aspects of energy management that you need to know for procurement, supply, and project financing.

Who Should Attend?

The short answer is anyone that is focused and committed to a self-study learning format. Professionals interested in, or actively performing energy management and energy efficiency-related work will gain the most. But it is also useful for entry-level candidates or individuals that interact with energy professionals during their daily work. At the end of the CEM Basics Program, participants will be able to:

  • Discuss energy supplies and energy management,
  • Understand energy-related terminology, relationships, and basic energy concepts.
  • Conduct energy surveys and present cost-effective improvement ideas.
  • Know how to expand their role in energy management and gain additional resources to be effective energy managers.
