The Institute of Hazardous Materials Management (IHMM) accreditations--both the Certified Hazardous Materials Manager (CHMM) and the Certified Hazardous Materials Practitioner (CHMP)--are accredited by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) and meet ANSI/ISO/IEC 17024, the International Standard for Personnel Certification Programs. CHMM is also accredited by the Council of Engineering and Scientific Specialty Boards (CESB). CHMMs and CHMPs have knowledge of a whole umbrella of environmental management areas such as: risk assessment, proper storage and handling, transportation, pollution prevention, waste stream management, impacts on environment, waste minimization, sustainability, emergency response, and remediation just to name a few.
