All Certification and Renewal courses must be set up online a minimum of six weeks before the course start date. Certification courses require at least 24 scheduled hours. Certification Renewal Courses require at least 8 scheduled hours.  Instructors are welcome to offer the courses over a longer period of time.

Instructors and Course Adminstraors may add courses online through their online profile (choose ADD A NEW COURSE from the action items list).  Follow the prompts to add the course. 

Note: Only Certified Instructors who have successfully completed the Lead Instructor (LI) quiz may be added as an LI.  Any Certified Instructor who wishes to be an LI may take the quiz by clicking on the action item APPLY TO BE A LEAD INSTRUCTOR in their CPS online profile. Once completed, this action item no longer appears.

Note: You can use the course description field to communicate additional requirements and directions. 

Note: The wait list is a way for people to electronically wait in line when the course is full. Check the WAIT LIST box if you’d like this option.

Note: You can edit or delete the dates you’ve already added as long as the course status is pending.

You now have created a course with the status of PENDING. You will see a message at the top of the course details page stating that you still need to activate the course for it to be available for registration.
