Some Sample Presentations

Below are several examples of child passenger safety seat education presentations (including the Colville Tribe 2-hour presentation mentioned in “Becca’s Experience” at the beginning of this module). These presentations could be used by new or continuing CPS Techs to fulfill their recertification requirements.  Accompanying these presentations are  1) a SNAP Teacher’s Guide with sample lesson plans, pre- and post- tests, ideas on how to put together an agenda, a course evaluation form, and general advice to the instructor and 2) a sample student handbook with an agenda, presentation handouts, pre- and post- tests, and evaluation forms for those attending your training.
