NOTE: This session of CPSI is hosted in tandem with Connections 2025: CPRS Conference and Expo.  Those who participate in the CPSI exam on Th., 03/20/2025 will receive complimentary access to the expo hall of the conference following completion of the exam.  

Playing outdoors is a major component in the health and wellness of our children. It is our responsibility to ensure safe, enjoyable play areas for all. CPRS, in conjunction with NRPA, are offering the Certified Playground Safety Inspector (CPSI) course and certification to properly train and certify you to recognize and prevent potential playground hazards. Courses are designed for park and rec staff, school districts, child care facilities, health departments, landscape architects, playground manufacturers, installers, contractors, insurance firms, home owner's associations and more.

Candidates who successfully pass the exam will be considered a Certified Playground Safety Inspector (CPSI) and will be added to the National Registry.  Obtaining CPSI certification will meet the State of California requirements regarding the inspection of playgrounds. Did you know recertification is required every three years?  

Whether you are recertifying or pursuing a certification for the first time, we invite you to join us for this in-person experience which involves two days of instruction (8 am - 5 pm) with lunch provided, followed by a two-hour exam on the third day.

You may opt to participate in only the course, both the course and exam, or only the exam.

Save the date to participate in this session of CPSI.  Registration is not yet open.  To learn more and for the most up to date information check the CPSI Education page.
