Welcome to the Official Website for the Institute of Emergency Management.
The Institute of Emergency Management (IEM) was incorporated in 1996 by professional emergency planners and managers who recognised the need to research and improve the response to major incidents and their immediate and long-term co-ordinated management. In so doing it was also aware of the necessity of promoting the education and training of key members of the emergency services and others, including the public, in the essential skills to deal with civil emergencies.
Since its formation the IEM has been actively involved in achieving these targets and has constantly pressed for high standards of professional practice at national and local levels as well as exchanging ideas and publication of information at international levels. As an Institute it has frequently been consulted for its professional views, comments and advice by the media, commercial, government and other bodies. Its work continues in these respects and its members actively participate in Conferences and seminars at international level on a wide range of subjects relevant to the management of major incidents.
