The American Academy of Environmental Engineers and Scientists® is a group of highly-qualified environmental engineers and environmental scientists who have imposed self-testing and review for entry qualification. Each Board Certified Environmental Engineer, Board Certified Environmental Engineering Member, and Board Certified Environmental Scientist, has not only met the standard prerequisites for specialty certification, but also has passed written and oral examinations and reviews by an admission panel of the Academy. The Academy's certification program is accredited by the Council of Engineering and Scientific Specialty Boards.
The Academy is an active participant in the accreditation of environmental engineering curricula. Through this process, the Academy ensures that educational standards are responsive to the needs of the professional and that tomorrow's engineers will meet the needs of the profession.
