Register of Pool Plant Professionals (ROPPPs)

The RoPPPs register recognises all those professionals who have qualified in pool plant operations and who have kept their knowledge up to date by attending a one day RoPPPs update seminar within 5 years of qualification (up to 31st July 2010) or 3 years of qualification (from 1st August 2010).
