After registering for your course, we will provide you with a code that will give you access to the Pool Operator Primer (POP) course. This is a self-paced online course that takes you through several chapters of the Pool & Spa Operator Handbook. You’ll have access to a flipbook version of the Handbook within the course, and you will receive a hard copy of the handbook at your in-person class.

You must complete the online prep course before the instructor lead session. There’s a quiz at the end of each lesson, and you must answer all the questions correctly to move to the next lesson. If you answer any questions incorrectly, you’ll be directed back to the lesson so you can find the correct answer. You can move at your own pace and repeat any sections that you wish to make sure you understand the content. Once you successfully complete the POP course, you’ll receive a Record of Completion, and you’ll need to save a copy.

You will need to email your certification of completion of the primer to Clear Aquatics prior to attending the in-person class. Your in-person class will take you through content from the Pool & Spa Operator Handbook. At the end of the day, you’ll take the CPO exam in-class. 

We are committed to making sure that you have the knowledge you need to be a successful pool and spa

operator, and we appreciate your flexibility in these unprecedented circumstances. We look forward to

meeting you.
