Commitment to Community
We are glad you are interested in taking the CERT Academy. The Academy is offered four times year which is held at the Regional Public Safety Training Center (RPSTC) which is located at 5190 Spectrum Blvd. To get to the RPSTC, proceed to Parr/Dandini Blvd and head east towards Sun Valley. At the round about you will take the exit headed towards the north, the RPSTC is just beyond the SPCA facility, at the top of the hill. Once inside the training center, check the monitor for the room assignment.
