Certified Playground Safety Inspector Course - Spring

March 11, 2025 8:00 AM - March 13, 2025 12:00 PM (CDT)

Description

The CPSI course is a national certification program delivered by National Recreation and Park Association and co-hosted by the Illinois Park and Recreation Association. It is designed to train individuals on how to identify hazards on public playgrounds and playground equipment, prioritize those hazards by injury potential, and establish a playground safety program. This is a 3-day, in-person program that gives candidates the option to register for the course and exam (3 days) or exam only (1 day). Regardless of work experience, it is highly recommended that candidates complete the course before taking the exam. If your job requires you to oversee playground equipment at schools or parks, or you are looking to further educate yourself on playground safety, you are encouraged to pursue this certification to help make playgrounds safer for kids.

As of January 31, the Spring Course is full at 80 registrants. Interested candidates may add their name to the waitlist in case more spots are added or a spot opens up.

Location

City of Elgin's Heritage Ballroom - 100 Symphony Way, Elgin, 60120

Course Materials

Registration for course and exam includes the 6th edition CPSI course manual. Course materials and pre-course reading assignments will be sent to attendees at least 4 weeks before the start of the course.

Registration for the exam only is common for certification renewal and therefore does not include the CPSI course manual.

Special Exam Accommodations

Candidates with a disability covered by the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) may request a special accommodation for the exam. The Request for Special Exam Accommodations should be completed and submitted to IPRA by Tuesday, February 4.

English as a second language (ESL) candidates may request a time extension and/or the use of a strict translation dictionary. The ESL Accommodation Request Form must be submitted to IPRA by Tuesday, February 4.

CEUs

Course is approved for 1.5 continuing education units and will be awarded to those in attendance for both days of class.
