The five-week format combines self-paced online modules, independent hands-on practice, and quizzes with virtual and in-person sessions. It includes two in-person training days focused on lectures, vehicle belt systems, and child safety seat skills assessments. The course concludes with a community car seat check event.
This course will certify students as CPS Technicians. This delivery format is NOT POST APPROVED at this time.
