What is the Certified Pool/Spa Operator® Certification Program?

The CPO certification program was developed and is sponsored by the National Pool & Spa Foundation, a non-profit foundation that encourages healthier living through aquatic education and research. The CPO® certification courses are designed to provide individuals with the basic knowledge, techniques, and skills of pool and spa operations. The Certified Pool/Spa Operator® certification program has delivered more training than any other program in the pool and spa industry since 1972, resulting in more than 342,623 successful CPO® certifications in 86 countries. Many state and local health departments accept the CPO® certification program.
