COVID-19 Information:


** In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, please see our updated training guidance, "CSTI Update Training Information" below under SAP Documents. Please note, this is intended for Cal OES led SAP training activities. CSTI is part of Cal OES and the SAP program will align with training guidance from CSTI. We understand the difficulties this imposes. We strongly encourage our trainers to align with local, state, and federal public health orders and delay any planned SAP training. **


The Safety Assessment Program (SAP) utilizes volunteers and mutual aid resources to provide professional engineers, architects, and certified building inspectors to assist local governments in safety evaluation of their built environment in the aftermath of a disaster. The program is managed by Cal OES, in cooperation with professional organizations.  Cal OES issues registration ID cards to all SAP Evaluators that have successfully completed the program requirements.
