ATCS is excited to be teaching your pool operator class online. We have had success with the online version of the course, but please be patient as technology and internet connections can be frustrating to navigate at times. Please make sure that you do not have additional streaming on your connection. In addition, make sure that you have a good internet signal and that you are not doing other things during class.
Here are the instructions that we suggest you follow:

Print your handbook prior to the beginning of class by accessing a pdf of your manual or visiting the online resource page. The online resource page contains valuable information in addition to the handbook.

When preregistering, it will ask you for your physical mailing address. Please use the address to where you would like your certificate sent. While I will email you a scanned copy of your certificate, some health departments require the original, so it is very important that I have the correct mailing address!
After preregistering, you will be emailed a link to connect to the training. You may also be asked to download the GoToWebinar software or app on your device. Please do this prior to class.
Please be on time for class and plan that it may take a few minutes to get logged in! This class for new pool operators will be from 8 am to 12 pm on weekdays and 9 am to 1 pm on weekends.
