Certification through the SME is
an industry
standard for professional
recognition and documentation of
manufacturing-related knowledge,
skills and capabilities.
SME
Certification offers four certifications:
• CMfgT
– Certified Manufacturing
Technologist
Recognizes competence in the
fundamentals of manufacturing
• CMfgE
– Certified Manufacturing
Engineer
Recognizes a more comprehensive
knowledge of manufacturing
processes and practices
• CEM
– Certified Engineering
Manager
Recognizes leadership of
technical activities
• CEI
– Certified Enterprise
Integrator
Recognizes leadership of
cross-functional initatives
Beyond personal achievement,
candidates will gain a competitive
edge over those who are not
certified, acquire professional
recognition for their desire,
commitment and leadership ability,
and improve their skills through
participation in continuing
education programs.
Certification requires a
comprehensive exam, a certain level
of education and/or experience, as
well as periodic continuing
education programs that ensure the
advancement of manufacturing
expertise. Certification should
not be confused with professional
licensure, which confers a legal
license to practice engineering.
