Of course I just found it after I posted lol.

The Professional Development Series includes seven Emergency Management Institute Independent Study courses that provide a well-rounded set of fundamentals for those in the emergency management profession. When a student has completed all courses in the series, the Independent Study Program Office automatically issues a certificate of completion, via email, directly to the student at the email address that was provided during the last test submission. Please allow 1-2 business days to receive the email. The courses, in recommended order of completion, are:

IS120.c An Introduction to Exercises
IS230.d Principles of Emergency Management
IS235.c Emergency Planning
IS240.b Leadership and Influence
IS241.b Decision Making and Problem Solving
IS242.b Effective Communication
IS244.b Developing and Managing Volunteers
