March 9th Dinner Meeting

Join us in the Atrium at the DoubleTree hotel as we welcome our guest speaker, Jeanne Mendelson, Vice President, Education, Certification and Events, from our national PHTA office for a presentation on the US Department of Labor approved, PHTA Apprenticeship Program for pool maintenance and service technicians.

Elevating the Industry, One Apprentice at a Time

Mendelson will discuss how the PHTA education, certification and apprenticeship programs serve to elevate and grow the industry. PHTA and GENESIS education has grown close to 100% in the past 18 months including the addition of the PHTA Registered Pool Maintenance and Service Technician Apprenticeship Program™. This nationwide program, registered with the U.S. Department of Labor, allowing the pool and spa profession to be more competitive with other industries that are also struggling for entry-level talent. And, because the PHTA apprenticeship program uses industry-developed competency and ANSI-approved standards developed by PHTA, employers and apprentices are assured that the program delivers the content needed to develop qualified service professionals.

By combining paid on-the-job training with classroom instruction, apprentices receive a skills-based education that prepares them for good-paying jobs – and helps you recruit, build, and retain a highly skilled workforce.

Dinner will be provided.
