Join PRPS this spring and become a Certified Pool & Spa Operator®(CPO®). The Fusion CPO (Certified Pool Operator) program is recognized worldwide as the gold standard in the swimming pool industry. It provides pool and spa owners with assurance that their facilities and guests are in the care of a trained professional. It will provide you with the knowledge, techniques, and skills required for proper pool operations. Over 400,000 students have been trained since 1972.

The Fusion CPO Certification Course is unique.  It offers participants the freedom to advance at their own pace and convenience.  Upon registration, you will receive the Pool & Spa Operator Handbook through the mail and access to nine (9) interactive online modules (6-8 hours) that will guide you through the material.  After completing the modules, participants will attend a one-day online session with the instructor.  This session will consist of an intensive review in the morning and a proctored exam in the afternoon. Completion of modules, as well as passing the test, will earn the participant certification as a CPO. 

Note: All modules must be completed before the online session and test on April 4th.

The CPO certification is valid for five years.
