Participants are trained in the most advanced techniques of chemical treatment,filtration,and mechanical systems operation and maintenance. Older pools are less efficient,creating a challenge for skilled operators to maintain with limited funds and resources. New pools with unique design features require specialized operation and maintenance practices. The growing number of water parks,swimming pools,spas and fountains has increased the need for professionally trained operators who have technical knowledge. </div> <bR> </tD> </tR> <tR> <tD VALIGN=TOP HEIGHT= 341 WIDTH="246"><div> <I><B>Who Should Be Certified?</B></I> </div> <div> Section 64E.9.018 of the Florida Health Regulations requires individuals servicing public swimming pools to be certified.
