Program Disclosures

The concentration in Emergency Management and Homeland Security is not designed to fulfill educational requirements for any professional credential. Post University assists in researching and providing information regarding relevant licensures, but it is ultimately the responsibility of each student to manage their own licensure process and to ensure that all requirements are met in order to obtain licensure.
