What is a CPO?
A CPO, or Certified Pool/Spa Operator, is a person who has successfully completed a specific course of instruction sanctioned by the  National Swimming Pool Foundation (NSPF). The NSPF is a national non-profit organization dedicated to aquatic health and safety, and is the leading educator for professionals who service and operate public and private pools and spas.
What is Covered in the Course Instruction?
The CPO certification course is based on the perspective of aquatic health and safety, and is designed to give individuals knowledge, techniques, and skills they need to operate and service pools and spas. The course instruction includes:
• Pool water contamination               disinfection,and balance
• Methods to calculate pool
    water volume

• Pool water circulation,
    filtration, and hydraulics

Who Should Become a CPO?
Anyone who is responsible for managing, supervising, and/or servicing a public or private aquatic facility (such as backyard pools, public pools, homeowner's association pools, hotel pools, YMCA pools, school pools, and more) should seek Certified Pool/Spa Operator certification.

The Los Angeles Department of Public Health requires that "Any person engaged in ... cleaning, servicing or maintaining ... public and private pools ..."  must be certified.  The CPO course is a prerequisite for this certification.  Click here to learn more about the  L.A.
