Published: Thursday, August 15, 2019
The Florida Swimming Pool Association (FSPA) recently held their Summer Refresher Course last Thursday, August 8, to provide education that is crucial to the professional development of attending pool professionals.
The event provided licensed contractors with seven hours of continuing education credits (CE). Continuing Education is required as part of the license renewal process.
Overall, 72 hours of CE credit were earned at FSPA’s Summer Refresher.
“This class was definitely a success when you factor in the number of credits earned,” said Mary Anderson, FSPA Continuing Education Manager. “These classes don’t just offer licensed contractors the credits they need to renew their license, but allows them to grow as a professional.”
