I have been wanting to take a CPST course. There is one in my area next month. I really want to take the course just because it is very interesting to me. Just from being on this board, I am confident that the seats in our cars are properly installed for my children and my daycare kids. I still have this desire to be a tech though...
The CPST course is Wednesday-Saturday. This means I have to pay a sub to run my in-home daycare for 3 days, which will be about $300. I just don't know if being a tech "just because I want to" is really worth $300.
I work full-time with my home daycare, so I would not be able to do seat check events during the week. I would be happy to do them on weekends, but not every weekend. How often do you techs do seat check events? How do you get asked to do these events? What other benefits are there of being a tech? What should I expect if I get certified? Will family and friends ask my advice? I would like to be able to help people I know. I feel funny sharing my knowledge now unless someone specifically asks.
