Certified WebEOC Administrator Candidate Handbook

Studying for the Exam
Candidate Qualifications
There are no prerequisites to taking the Certified WebEOC Administrator exam.
However, the following qualifications for the exam are strongly recommended:
• Tenure in emergency management/preparedness and industry knowledge
• Practical experience working with a WebEOC system
• Understanding the principals of basic board building
• Understanding how to tailor a WebEOC system and how information flows in an
organization
No two exam candidates will come to the test center with the same level of knowledge.
Because experience and educational backgrounds are unique, these considerations
should be taken into account when considering study methods. While some candidates
may take the exam without any study, the majority should spend time preparing.
Because the exam measures the candidate’s ability to facilitate the integrated design
process, his/her knowledge of WebEOC Administration, and the resources and
processes involved in designing and building input forms and display boards, the best
way to prepare for the exam is to understand the rating system requirements and
processes and their application in practice.
The main source of study material for the Certified WebEOC Administrator exam is the
WebEOC User Manual and the WebEOC Administrator Manual. Candidates can
supplement their study by utilizing courses offered at ESI ® University and by gaining
practical, real-world experience.
