What is the cost of joining IPSSA?
 
Chapter dues and national dues. Chapter dues very. But what is a few dollars a month, the price of two Chocolate Mochas. In the long run, having someone to help you when you are sick, can save you thousands.  
 
IPSSA Water Chemistry Exam - Defined

The IPSSA water chemistry certification exam will be based on IPSSA’s Basic Training Manual-Part 1 and is administered through IPSSA’s online portal at no cost. All new members must pass the water chemistry exam within one year of joining their IPSSA chapter.  To obtain a text exam link with unique access code, email info@ipssa.com.  Please note that although the test is not timed, prolonged inactivity during testing will cause the exam to “time out” and need to be restarted; the testing site does not save progress or have a continue option. Each testing code issued allows for 10 attempts to pass.  
​The Basic Training Manual – Part 1 book and Workbook can be purchased on our online IPSSA Store. 

For more information about the process of the water chemistry exam, check out our 
video tutorial. ​
