Who Teaches the CPO Certification Classes?
Steve and his wife Elise own and operate a professional swimming pool service business in Mission Viejo, CA. As a lifelong teacher and mentor, Steve was an adjunct instructor in the mid-1980s teaching computer architecture and 8-bit micro-processor assembly language at a local community college. Since 2008, he’s been presenting the CPO Certification class.
Whether you’re starting a pool service business, new to the industry, or a seasoned professional, Steve’s CPO class has something for you. Newcomers get accurate, and good fundamental information when starting out. Industry veterans benefit from myth-busting, deeper explanations of why common practices work (or don’t), and insights that often resonate most with technicians who have 10–20 years of experience. Perfect for pool operators, service techs, managers, and business owners who want clear, experience-based instruction and real-world mentorship.
