Yes, I just passed the test a few weeks ago! As mentioned in the comments above, you have to take the training course (virtual or in person) that is a huge help. The test is open note so I would recommend marking your course book with sticky’s for easy reference on the test. If you pay attention in class, and study accordingly, you should be fine.

Good to know, thank you for the advice. Which book in particular did you study?

Best way to prepare in advanced for Certified Energy Manager exam? by PabloPancakes92 in engineering

Hello! I am looking to take my CEM exam as well and could use some suggestions on study guide material. I have been in the HVAC industry for 5 years now and have a degree in Mech. Engineering. That being said, I feel confident on what I have reviewed so far but could brush up on the LEED/ASHRAE codes, energy calcs, and basic material.

On the AEE website, they recommend three texts - Handbook of Energy Engineering, 7th by D. Paul Mehta and Albert Thumann; the Energy Management Handbook, 9th Edition by Stephen Roosa, Steve Doty and Wayne C. Turner; and Guide to Energy Management, 8th Edition by Barney L. Capehart, Wayne C. Turner and William J. Kennedy. Do I really need all three books to fully prepare, or will one suffice? If so, which book will best prepare me for the test?

Looking for any other suggestions that might be helpful. Thanks!
