Accreditation Fees

The costs associated with accreditation are the subscription to EMAP, the accreditation application fee, and the fees associated with the on-site assessment.

The cost of an EMAP subscription is $450 U.S. with discounts for multiple programs (see "Subscribe" for more information). Subscribing your program will provide, in addition to access to the online EMAP Self Assessment Tool, access to accreditation application, and standards materials, and updates. Subscription involves no commitment to seek accreditation but is a means of acquiring standards and procedures materials for review and conducting your online self assessment.

Accreditation application fees are paid at the time of application and vary based on the candidate jurisdiction's population. Following are accreditation application fees as set by the EMAP Commission.

State Program Population			Fee Amount
	up to 2 million		$4,500
	2,000,001 - 6 million		$6,000
	6,000,001 and Over		$7,500
Local Program Population			Fee Amount
	Up to 50,000		$2,000
	50,001 to 500,000		$3,500
	500,001 to 2 million		$4,500
	2,000,001 and Over		$6,000

On-site assessment costs will be estimated and pre-paid to EMAP once the program is ready to schedule on-site assessment; actual costs will be reconciled after the on-site assessment.
