This course features the NRPA’s Aquatic Facility Operator Manual, the most complete and comprehensive publication available on pool operations.  Author Kent G. Williams combines wit and over 30 years of experience to clearly lead even the beginning pool manager through the often-complex processes in aquatic operations.  The manual undergoes revision every three years to keep current with changing technology.  The manual is user friendly and enjoyable to read.
