Your Instructor
I have been
in the Swimming Pool & Spa Industry since 1989. I owned and operated a pool
service and repair company for 5+ years, spent 7 years in pool remodeling and
worked as a sales rep for Hayward Pool Products and BioLab/BioGuard. I have been a service manager for a large pool/spa maintenance company. I taught CPO classes for FPSIE in Sacramento, CA before venturing out as an
independent CPO Instructor.In the
class presentation, I incorporate my field experience, manufacturer’s “insider”
stories along with information from the countless training seminars I have attended
over the years. I also encourage
students to share their stories to give practical application to the subjects
in the book.
Typically my classes have a range of students from absolute beginners (less than one month’s experience) to some with more than 20 years (or more!) in the business. But no matter how much experience anyone in the room has – including me !! – there is always something new to learn.
The Pool
Industry is and has been changing – and the pace is increasing. In these tough economic
times, every technician should pursue as much education as he or she can in
order to have the competitive edge to get the job(s). Now is the time to collect the proverbial notches
in your belt and get your CPO Certification!!
I look forward to seeing you in my class!!
