CPST Course in Europe?

thegeekybird · Apr 23, 2012

Hi! I am looking into the possibility of a CPST course here in Germany. I am a member of a very large military community in Germany (near Kaiserslautern). A group that I volunteer with on a regular basis is contemplating the possibility of hosting a CPST course by flying someone/2 someones out to teach it. There is a CPST instructor about an hour from here, but to the best of my knowledge, not another one in Europe at all.

Anyway, does anyone know of a CPST instructor (or instructorS) that would be willing to fly to Germany to teach this course to a group of American military members &/or their spouses?

Thanks!

If it could be worked out time wise, I'd LOVE to come and help teach the course! My DH is retired Air Force, so I have an ID card, etc. for base access.

I'm not a CPSTI but if I were I'd do it in a heartbeat! I -love- to travel and I've always wanted to visit Germany. I'd do it just for the airfare alone. LOL.

Now I'm jealous of whatever awesome CPST-I gets to do this cool thing.

I did my training at Hohenfels. It was conducted by (I am assuming) the tech and hour from you (Hedielberg right)? I know they were trying to get another instructor certified but I am not sure that it happened. Hohenfels, K-town, Vinzenca and Belgium all have techs who took the class with me. I am not sure of their statuses so maybe contact Kim and talk to her.

Kim would also know of a tech that could fly in but that is costly as your group would have to cover all expenses.

I talked to Kim earlier today, and from what I understand, there are no longer any other CPST-Is here (aside from her). I also talked to a CPST here last week, which is how I got her name.

The idea of flying someone out here is being floated in the group that I volunteer with to see if it's feasible (and the rest of it is that we need to see if anyone is *willing* <3). After talking to SafeKids today, my understanding is anyone who is CPST-I certified and willing to come can teach/co teach the class.

Any chance you want to be certified as a Canadian tech?

Cause I would come in a second!
