Texas Department of Family and Protective Services (TX DFPS)
Texas Dept. of Family and Protective Services offers several online classes including Sudden Infant Death Syndrome/SIDS and Shaken Baby Syndrome
Here are directions to access the online classes through TAMU:
Keep in mind to enroll, complete the class, and print the certificates each parent must sign in with a different email address, as this is the information that is pulled into the certificate. TAMU’s system generates a unique number for each certificate that can be accessed again later, so if the certificate is ever misplaced or doesn’t print, it can be retrieved with just the number.
For Water Safety, DFPS has changed its information to Help and Hope’s “Watch Kids Around Water” information page. At first glance, it looks different than what was on the DFPS page, but the content is the same. Remember, this page does not lead to a review and option to print a certificate, so you will want to generate one for each parent once you’ve reviewed it with them and/or they’ve completed the attached Training Information Worksheet.
