The Essentials of Hazardous Materials Management (EHMM) course is an excellent cross-training tool for environmental, health, safety and security (EHS/S) professionals. The course, which is presented in cooperation with the Pacific Northwest Chapter of the Academy of Hazardous Materials Professionals (PNWC-AHMP), an affiliate of the Alliance of Hazardous Materials Professionals (AHMP), is designed as a broad introduction to the industry and provides instruction about laws and regulations as well as technologies and practices. It highlights topics and information hazardous materials managers need to know to better perform their jobs.  It also helps those new to the profession gain a foundation and prepare for the Certified Hazardous Materials Manager® (CHMM®) designation examination.  Those who already have earned the CHMM® designation can take Essentials of Hazardous Materials Management (EHMM) to obtain annual Credential Maintenance Points (CMPs).

The Essentials of Hazardous Materials Management (EHMM), formerly known as the ACHMM National Overview Course, is endorsed by the United States Department of Energy’s National Environmental Training Office.
