1. This ALCOAST announces the October 2022 Coast Guard Emergency
Management Credential (CGEMC) Board results, which convened 17-21
October 2022 in accordance with REFs (A) and (B).
2. The CGEMC Board was established in 2021 to recommend Coast Guard
personnel who have demonstrated the highest levels of expertise and
proficiency in the field of Emergency Management (EM) for a
credential. This credential is a cornerstone effort designed to
advance crisis leadership skills within the Coast Guard by
promoting the principles of EM. As outlined in REF (B), the CGEMC
is available to any active duty (officer or enlisted), civilian,
reserve (officer or enlisted), or auxiliary member who meets the
training, experience, and test criteria, regardless of specialty
or assigned duty station/position. The CGEMC Board
process was modeled after the ICS Competency Review process.
3. The CGEMC Board reviewed 9 applications and recommended 8 be
assigned the CGEMC. Of the 9 applicants, 5 applicants held the
CEM designation or other comparable agency EM credential.
