Federal Emergency Management Agency | Emergency Management Institute

Beginning January 1, 2019, the Emergency Management Institute (EMI) Superintendent will no longer sign Advanced Professional Series (APS) certificates. The APS program, which utilizes EMI developed courses, will continue to do so, and EMI will continue to maintain the courses; however, the responsibility for issuing the APS certificates will be turned over to the state emergency management agencies.

Students have always sent their requests for APS Certificates of Completion to their State Training Officer (STO) or designated State Emergency Management agency representative for confirmation and approval. After Jan 1, 2019, if a student requesting a certificate has met the requirements, then the State Emergency Management Director and anyone else designated to sign the certificate will do so. The STO or State Director’s office will then mail the certificate to the student.

If you have any questions or for more information, contact the APS Curriculum Manager at fema-g-courses@fema.dhs.gov.
