If you are revalidating within 8 weeks of your original Pool Plant Operator Certificate expiry then we will require additional prerequisites to process your revalidation. This is to show you have been maintaining current and regular pool plant room and water testing experience. This evidence can be provided in the form of a letter or expert witness statement from your employer to be sent to [email protected]. Once received, your details will be submitted to RLSS UK for awarding.

If your Pool Plant Operator Certificate is outside of this period, you will need to obtain a qualification extension request from your original Awarding Organisation, this will need to be evidenced alongside your original certificate before your results are processed.
