Hello, I'm Alicia, mom to 2 kids and a new CPS Tech. I just took the course in September and haven't recieved my cert card yet, but I already know I passed, so I consider myself certified! At some point after becoming a mom I became obsessed with carseat safety and have read and researched everything I could find. I finally fulfilled my dream and became a tech. I kind of felt out of place in my class since I was the only person in a group of 14 that was there by choice and not by job requirement.

Since I've been doing "official" checks for a lot of my friends, I've come across a few questions that I don't have answers to...so here I am hoping to find answers and to learn more here.

Welcome

Your story is very similar to mine, right down to not getting my tech card yet! I was in a class of 19, all the rest of the people were cops, firefighters, community health nurses, social workers, etc. taking the class for their job. I was the only person taking the class for "fun." I too know that I passed my test and have worked a couple of checks since the class.

Hope we get our official cards soon!
