CPS Technician Workshops (for CEU credits)
In order to assist Georgia's CPS Technicians in re-certifying,
a new CPS Technician Workshop has been developed that
will allow techs to earn Continuing Education Units
(CEUs). The workshop meets all requirements established
by the National CPS Board and Safe Kids Worldwide because
the content is designed to improve CPS knowledge through
technical updates. Each technician completing the workshop
will receive a certificate of attendance as documentation
for re-certification.
