Old School Is No School: Continuing Education for Pool Pros

Real estate brokers update constantly. Many pool builders operate on 1995 knowledge. That’s malpractice.

Ask Builders

• Current certifications?
• Continuing education?
• What did you do last winter?

Winter Trade Shows (Where Pros Go)

• World of Concrete (Atlantic City): Global concrete/masonry tech, education, demos.
• Mid America Pool & Spa (Chicago): Midwest’s largest; products, networking, tailored education.
• Atlantic City Pool & Spa Show: 500+ exhibitors, 10K+ attendees, 75+ seminars on design, tech, safety.

Why It Matters

Seminars build on years of study/certifications. A luxury gunite pool deserves a builder who invests in mastery annually. “I know what you did last winter” = peace of mind.
