| About BEAC |
|
For more than a decade the
Board of Environmental, Health and Safety Auditor
Certifications (BEAC) has been working to ensure that
organizations and government are staffed with
professional auditors who ensure we live in a healthy
and safe world.
BEAC is an independent non-profit
corporation, created in 1997 as a joint venture
between The Auditing Roundtable and The Institute of
Internal Auditors to issue professional
auditor certifications relating to environmental, health
& safety, security, sustainability, social responsibility
(EHS), and other scientific fields.
BEAC applicants must meet a variety of qualification
criteria. Once approved, they are awarded the
professional designation of Certified Professional
Environmental Auditor (CPEA).
The BEAC certification is accredited by the Council of
Engineering & Scientific Specialty Boards (CESB).
