1 STUDY GUIDE CERTIFIED ENERGY MANAGERS EXAM Online Self-Evaluation Exam Also Available CEM Applicants now have access to an online version self-evaluation test of the CEM exam. There is an $80 fee to take this online test and you may access the full details at Vantage Learning: Direct Link: This test has a Save and Finish Later button, allowing you to have the option to finish the test in one sitting or to resume the test at a later date. You re given one submission attempt and the subscription period is for one year. At the end of the exam, you will receive a sections report that lets you know what sections you passed and failed. You will not be able to see the specific questions that you answered wrong/right or the answers. The following is a list of the subjects for the CEM exam. Each subject covers a number of topics. Following the list of topics are suggested references with chapter numbers. The primary references are the Handbook of Energy Engineering, by D. Paul Mehta and Albert Thumann, the Energy Management Handbook, 8 th Edition by Steve Doty and Wayne C. Turner, and Guide to Energy Management, 7 th Edition by Barney L. Capehart, Wayne C. Turner and William J. Kennedy. However, some other books are also referenced as appropriate. The study guide will not lead you to answers to all of the questions, but it will certainly lead you to a very large number of correct answers. A person with the necessary experience who reviews the study guide should not have any problem passing the exam. The exam will: be open book, last four hours, and have 130 questions to answer. Of the 130 questions, 120 are scored and 10 randomly located questions are trial questions being prepared for possible use on future exams. The 120 questions counting toward an examinee s score are worth 8.7 points each. The 10 trial questions do not count toward the examinee s score. The trial questions are randomly located and are not identified. Therefore, all 130 questions should be answered. There are 17 sections listed below from which questions mainly are drawn.
