The Canadian Centre for Emergency Preparedness (CCEP) was
established in 1993 as a federally incorporated not-for-profit
organization. CCEP advocates and promotes disaster management
principles - practices to individuals, communities and
organizations, in both government and the private sector, with
the aim of reducing the risk, impact and cost of natural, human-
induced and technological disasters.
CCEP€™s objectives are to increase awareness of the growing
risks, and changing nature of disasters; to promote the need for
sound disaster management principles and practices; and to
disseminate information on the availability of professional
expertise and resources, including technology.
CCEP€™s major activity is the annual World Conference on Disaster
Managementâ„¢, one of the largest international events of its kind.
The first World Conference on Disaster Management (WCDM) was
organized in October 1989 - since 1994 the WCDM has been
presented by CCEP as an annual event. The Conference is now
recognized as the premier North American events addressing a
full spectrum of disaster management disciplines for training
and networking among Emergency Management, Business Continuity
and Emergency Health Care professionals worldwide, and for the
organizations which supply and service these professions.
The WCDM is held every year in Toronto. Over 1500 delegates,
sponsors and exhibitors from 50 countries attend presentations
and workshops on business continuity, emergency planning and
emergency health care.
The theme of the WCDM is €œEmergency Management - Business Continuity Working Together€?. Full information is available on the conference web

Testimonial: "In my 38 years in the communications business
this is by far the best conference I have ever
attended; it is obvious that your whole team did
excellent research on both the variety of the
subjects covered and the overall excellent
quality of your presenters and material
covered.....The Conference truly was 'A World
Class Event' organized by people who truly
represent the best in disaster management
principles." Peter Johnstone, Senior Service
Director, Bell Nexxia, Ottawa, Canada
"...I was extremely impressed with the general
standard of presentations. Many of them were
first class. Clearly, the reputation of the
Conference is such that you are able to gather
together people of the highest calibre in their
respective fields.....In summary it is far the
best Conference I have attended."
