Measurement and Verification Certification for Carbon and Energy Professionals
Measurement and Verification (M&V) is a vital part of the Plan-Do-Check-Act cycle to drive efficiency. Understanding the essentials of effective M&V is critical to the monitoring, reporting and assessment of projects.
CEP recognises two sets of international M&V qualifications for demonstrating knowledge in the area of measurement and verification through our Collaborating partners.
Currently, CEP does not directly provide M&V training. We recommend you investigate the two sets of options below to determine which suits you better.


The Association of Energy Engineers (AEE) is the provider, examining body and CPD administrator for the Certified Measurement and Verification Professional® program.

Energy Efficiency Performance Measurement and Verification Certification Programs

Energy Efficiency Performance Measurement and Verification Certification is available at two levels: Analyst (PMVA) and Expert (PMVE).
- Efficiency Valuation Organisation (EVO) is the provider, examining body and CPD administrator for this certification, and is also a CEP Collaborating Partner.
- The Energy Efficiency Council (Australia) (EEC) is a CEP Collaborating Partner, and is also EVO’s training partner in Australia.
EVO and EEC work together to deliver the PMVA and PMVE training and certification in Australia. They also make the certifications available to CEP’s New Zealand network.
CMVP Certification maintenance and renewal
Your CMVP certification requires you to maintain your skills through education and professional credits. Your CMVP must also be renewed every three years so you can continue to use the CMVP designation. At renewal you will need to pay a renewal fee.
Please note:
- If your CMVP certification is not renewed by the specified renewal date, you will have to meet additional requirements before you can be reinstated.
- If your email address changes, make sure you tell AEE. Otherwise you might not get your renewal notice in time, which may result in you being required to retake the CMVP exam.
For more information on maintaining and renewing your CMVP certification please contact your training provider or visit AEE’s general certification renewal webpage.
