Emergency management specialists respond to emergencies that could cause injuries or damage to employees, the environment or industrial facilities. They search for resources and prepare to handle events such as on-site accidents, HAZMAT spills and fires, as well as natural disasters like floods, tornadoes, hurricanes and earthquakes.

Students who complete our Emergency Management Specialist certificate program learn how to mitigate emergencies and work behind the scenes with other organizations to pool resources for the best outcomes.
