Participants receive a certificate upon completion of the Playground Maintenance Course.
This course is different than NRPA’s CPSI certification course, as this is a much more manitenance focused course for your front line workers. These two programs differ but do complement each other .
This is a great opportunity for permanent/seasonal part-timers that service playgrounds during the busy summer months, and it is considered a good starter course for aspiring Certified Playground Saftey Inspectors ( CPSI) and now
This course has been approved for a total of .6 CEU which can be used for certifications such as CPRE, CPRP, & CPSI. 0.2 are in group A (Hazard ID, Risk Management) and 0.4 are in group B ( Surfacing, Playground Environment, Audit, Inspection & Maintenance).
