Each student receives 16 hours of instruction by a Certified Instructor specifically trained to communicate the basic skills necessary to operate a pool or spa facility. The course is intensive and covers water chemistry, testing, treatment, filtration, maintenance, automatic feeding equipment, government requirements, etc. Each student must pass a written examination in English to be certified. Translation to Spanish is available upon request.
The Pool and Hot Tub Alliance (PHTA) offers this course in 2 different formats:
Two-day format: a face-to-face pool/spa operator training course delivered by an experienced instructor (test included). One-day format: a hybrid course called a "Fusion" course is also available. For this course, students must first complete about 8-10 hours of online work (done in your own home and at your own pace), then come to a one-day face-to-face class to finish the course (test included).
Certification
Graduates will receive a certificate, suitable for framing, and a wallet card issued by the Pool and Hot Tub Alliance.
The wallet card is a miniature version of the certificate and carries the graduate's personal CPO registration number. Certification is valid for 5 years.
Holding an active CPO certification but expiration is approaching? Two options:
[1] Candidates can purchase CPO POP Fusion course, then attend the second day where the exam is administered at the end of the day.
[2] Candidates can register to attend second day of a CPO course, where you will take part in math review of the first day, go over jurisdiction updates, question-and-answer portion, followed by the exam.

Reviews from Students
Brian G. - It was a true pleasure to learn from you. I admire how you were able to accommodate so many learning styles, how you were able to cover so much material, and how you were able to make it relatable to me, who is very unfamiliar with the industry.
Jake J. - I didn't have a chance to tell you how much I appreciated your instruction! I am currently a senior at NC State and I wanted to mention to you that many of the professors I have had were nowhere nearly as helpful and as able to describe the course matter as you were able to in just two days.
Supervisor Mark - The feedback from the students was all positive. They enjoyed your teaching style. They felt that they received the proper training to perform the tasks required in the CPO position.
