This is the National CPS website, where we find out what makes CPS work, and how it can help us. When you pass your boating exams, you will be CPS regular members for the rest of 2008, and with your membership number, will be able to "log in" to the members portion of the website and be able to access more useful information. Note that senior members on the Squadron Bridge have controlled access to restricted portions of the website for the purpose of doing squadron adminstration, accessing membership information statistics, etc.
