From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Council-certified Indoor Air Quality Manager (CIAQM) is a certification granted by the American Indoor Air Quality Councilto executive level individuals who have demonstrated a high level of knowledge concerning indoor air quality as it relates to corporate policy making, property management, facility management or risk management. The CIAQM requires a minimum combination of two years of verifiable education and field experience.

In addition to documenting education and field, experience candidates for the CIAQM must successfully pass a 100 question closed-book examination with a score of 75% or better. The examination covers a wide range of indoor air quality issues including Indoor Air Quality management programs, factors that influence the quality of indoor air and poor air quality mitigation and remediation strategies.

Candidates whose education and experience are verified and who successfully complete the examination are certified by a panel of industry peers, the CIAQM certification board.

The CIAQM certification process is accredited by the Council of Engineering and Scientific Specialty Boards (CESB).
