The instruction provided by a CMSP training site is monitored relative to program content, instructor credentials and competence, and adherence to the Rules and Procedures set forth by the CMSP. Our site, like all the others in California is subject to several Technical Assistance Reviews (TARs) each year to ensure that we are meeting the requirements and goals of the program.

There are both written and riding examinations to verify your comprehension of the material which is covered in the basic course. Both of these examinations must be passed.
