Available in PDF format as ASEM Member Benefit. The current CAEM and CPEM exams are based on this edition. The purpose of A Guide to the Engineering Management Body of Knowledge Guide (EMBOK Guide) is to delineate the knowledge and skills that are applicable to the engineering management discipline. It answers the question, “What does it take to be an effective engineering manager?” The EMBOK Guide also provides a common vocabulary for the engineering management discipline and outlines the competency areas that should be possessed by professionals working in the field of engineering management (Shah & Nowocin, 2015). The EMBOK Guide serves as a foundation for certification exams, curriculum development, and professional development programs. This guide should be viewed as a foundational reference for the discipline.
