Renewal Classes (1 Day, for those who have expired certifications)

The renewal one day class is for CPS techs who have let their certification expire AND who have kept up with changes in the field.

Contact Emilie Crown if you are interested.

Update classes (4 CEU’s, for currently certified technicians)

In order to keep technician certification current, all techs need to recertify every two years. Part of that recertification process involves completion of 6 hours of continuing education every two years. Update classes are offered in the fall of every year and  4 CEU's are awarded to those who attend. There is no charge for these update classes.

Contact Emilie Crown to register for Update Classes.

All classes will be held in Room 225 of the Council Office Building,

100 Maryland Avenue, Rockville, MD 20850.

The car seat program in Montgomery County is always looking for volunteers at their car seat checks. You can help even if you are not a certified technician. Please call Emilie Crown at 240-777-2467 if you are interested.
