President's Welcome

Welcome to the South Carolina Emergency Management Association. Our mission is to curate the principles of emergency management through professional development. SCEMA provides a platform for members to network and interact with other emergency managers across multiple disciplines.
SCEMA coordinates the SC Certified Emergency Manger program, the only state-level emergency management certification in South Carolina. Highlighting best attributes and goals every emergency manager should strive for, the associations' strategic plan outlines the goals of the association and will guide the organization.
