Scott is a wonderful teacher! I have and will continue to recommend Scott and Tropical Aquatics to anyone aspiring to acquire a CPO and learn more about pools or just learn how to take care of their own.He breaks down all the basic concepts that are needed to get you a good start. The book will fill in any blanks that you may have and is great to study. He even walks you through highlighting the most important concepts and sections to look back on.I really appreciate Scott’s teaching style as he is very fun, energetic, and encouraging. It’s imperative for any pool maintenance worker to attain a CPO and practice safe chemistry balancing and maintenance of equipment.You’ll eliminate a lot of guess work from working with large corporations who claim to help you get “the best pool,” when they frequently preach completely unsupported pool maintenance techniques without reasoning behind it. Scott will guide you to the right information. You’ll also gain an idea of what safety hazards to look out for to protect yourself and pool users from negligence.Acquiring my CPO with Scott helped me secure an amazing job managing commercial pools at a local retirement community. My new crew team also knew Scott as they have taken his class, too.Thank you so much Scott! I hope to run into you again in five years.

Scott was an excellent teacher. He kept his classes lively and fun, and I loved his movie references. Also his knowledge of information on the books you will receive is spot on, very impressive. Thanks Scott for the great class. I recommend everyone to take his class.

Recently attended the class and greatly appreciated Scott for his versatility during the COVID-19 lockdown. His ZOOM based class was exceptionally well managed and a transformed from knowing how to manage a pool to UNDERSTANDING how to manage a pool.Great communication from him and would genuinely recommend to experienced and newcomers alike.

I would give 6 stars if I could. Scott has an amazing personality and perfect for teaching. Class is informative and he keeps it from being boring and it’s affordable as well. The guy actually cares that you learn and know how to run a safe land healthy pool.

Scott Ford is an amazing instructor. He makes sure everyone in the classroom is on the same page and involved. I knew nothing going in but after the class I was able to tell you anything you need to know about pools. I loved that he allowed open book test and took the time to answer all my questions during his lecture. He made the class enjoyable with his funny personality.

Scott Ford is a great instructor. Taught me everything I needed to know about pools and more. I knew nothing going into his class but after 2 days with him I was ready to work on pools. He keeps the class interesting and make sure you know all the important information. He stays after class for questions and is all around a great guy.

If you are looking to get your Florida Pool Operator License (CPO) this is the school to do it. The instructor Tom was amazing and in the 2 day class explained in great detail the information we needed to learn. Very informative and his sense of humor helped us learn quickly. I passed the first time, if you want to learn and pass your test the first time, this is the school for you. I found work right away in the Orlando Area. Thanks The Pool Class. Tropical Aquatics

Very informative and educational program. Scott is the Neil Degrasse Tyson of pools. Able to make what may seem to be difficult to learn, a piece of cake. Very interactive with the class, and will not hesitate to help someone if they have difficulty understanding. Its beneficial to have a CPO (in my opinion), not only for general knowledge involving chemicals, but for employment. Also, especially if youre a parent with a pool at home, like myself.

Just finished and passed Scotts CPO course and I have to say, he is an excellent instructor! His style of teaching and presentation of the material was entertaining and easily learned. Class time flew by.I highly recommend Scott and The Pool Class if you need to become a Certified Pool Operator.Thank you, Scott!

Great teacher!

Scott fords class is the one to take. He keeps it light and funny. Tells you everything you need to know and explains things with ease. If you need your CPO go through him!

Was my 4th time certifying....alway a great class would recommend to anyone!!Thanx Scott Ford!

Ive been trying to get ahold of the owner for over 2 months to get into a pool class that i already paid for. He canceled the 1st class and said i could reschedule and he has ignored numerous emails and voicemails ever since. $300 down the drain. Very disappointed.

Great teacher, would tell anyone that wants CPO to go to this guy

Awesome class and Scott keeps it fun!

Detailed instruction very informative

I can not get a response from this company phone or email and their web site is not working fully they already hit my charge card. I guess my only avenue now is to alert American Express to refund monies.
