National Child Passenger Safety Technician Certification Renewal Testing Course

The National CPST Certification Renewal Testing Course allows former CPST’s, who are expired less than one year (recommended), the opportunity to renew their CPST certification by demonstrating proficiency of knowledge and skills.

  • Former CPST’s who are expired for more than a year are encouraged to retake the National CPST Certification Training in order to refresh their knowledge and skills.

The National CPST Certification Renewal Testing Course does not provide the opportunity to
update or refresh the child passenger safety knowledge or skills of the student during the
course. It is expected that the student has strong knowledge and skills in child passenger
safety gained through active participation in car seat checkup events and continuing education
opportunities prior to expiration of their CPST certification.

Successful completion of the National CPST Certification Renewal Testing Course will recertify the student as a CPST, starting a new two-year certification cycle.
