Child Safety Seat Pre-Conference - $175

”Child Passenger Safety Restraint Systems on School Buses” was written because more and more school bus drivers find themselves transporting pre-school age children and infants. School districts are offering classes for pre-school children while some high schools offer programs for teen moms with infants. School buses are used for transporting both Head Start students and pre-school age children to early intervention programs and childcare. This eight-hour course, based on NHTSA’s National Child Passenger Safety Certification Training Program, was developed specifically to address the unique issues of installing Child Safety Restraint Systems (CSRS) on school buses. It also supports the Guideline for the Safe Transportation of Pre-school Age Children in School Buses, developed by NHTSA in 1999, which recommends that pre-school age children who are transported in school buses always be transported in properly secured CSRS. Taught by Charley Kennington, Jean Zimmerman, Sue Shutrump and Cheryl Wolf.
