The Inspector Certification Program is designed to confirm the knowledge of individuals working in the inspection field
within the amusement industry. Certification is an outward demonstration of one's knowledge of general activities and
technologies that are an integral part of a daily amusement ride program and his or her participation in such activities and
programs. Certification is useful for securing additional business opportunities and jurisdictional accreditation as well as
personal development.
There are three levels of inspector certification.
- Level I, Associate Ride Inspector (ARI)
- Level II, Certified Ride Inspector (CRI)
- Level III, Professional Ride Inspector (PRI)
In order to achieve certification, an individual must provide verification of his or her industry experience and education. In
addition, he or she must receive passing scores on the certification exams. The certifications are renewable. In order to
maintain the certification, receipt of continuing education units (CEU), attendance in an AIMS-approved curriculum, and
involvement in the amusement industry must be documented.
The AIMS Inspector Certification Program is an internationally recognized program for verification of knowledge and
participation in the field of amusement ride inspection.
When an individual achieves a Level III certification, it will be clear that that person is a valuable asset to the amusement
industry. A Professional Ride Inspector is a person who not only has gained knowledge with years of experience, but he
or she also unselfishly gives back to the industry from which he or she has benefited.
