What People Are Saying About Us

“Tell me and I forget, teach me and I may remember, involve me and I learn.”― Benjamin Franklin

Alex Nichols
Emergency Operations Coordinator at The University of Georgia
“Rudy is very knowledgeable when it comes to aquatic facilities and the maintenance that it takes to keep them running successfully. His CPO class was very informative and a great value.I would highly recommend his CPO class for anyone looking to gain knowledge regarding the operation and maintenance of an aquatic facility.“
Abi Shaefer
Director of Aquatics at Duke University
“ Rudy is the best in the business when it comes to pools, pool knowledge, and CPO instruction. I have personally taken his class, and even after 10+ years of running pools, I learned so many new skills and tricks of the trade. Additionally Duke University hosted Rudy this past summer and I had several head lifeguards take his CPO course- these students walked away wide-eyed and ready to take on pools. Rudy gets an A+ from me and Duke Aquatics!
John Poma
Pool Service Company Owner
“Would absolutely recommend Rudy to anyone that is wanting to get CPO certified.
Couldn’t ask for a better pool professional absolutely the most knowledgeable person that I have met in over 30 years in the pool industry with the most knowledge of pool chemistry that I have ever seen.
The most enjoyable class that I’ve ever been in; he takes learning to a whole new level..“
Award Winning CPO Instructor Rudy Stankowitz
I began teaching and consulting due to an injury that pulled me out of the field (swimming pool service), and I immediately felt it clicked. The Certified Pool Operator Certification classes have been just a small part of it. For me, the best part comes from all of the people I have had the opportunity to meet either here in the US or abroad. Those relationships, the friendships I have gained, and the experiences we have shared have made these classes a remarkable and rewarding journey.

Now, a little over halfway through my 8th year as an instructor, I wanted to take a moment to mention how lucky I am to have met the folks I have met along the way and to have received accolades each year for doing something I love to do. Thank you! – Rudy Stankowitz
