Top Ops Competition Winners
The Top Ops Contest involves a "College Bowl" type competition which tests the everyday know-how of water treatment operators, with questions approved by the Association of Boards of Certifications (ABC). The purpose of the contest is to recognize and promote excellence and professionalism in all aspects of water operations by giving operators the opportunity to showcase their talents. Teams of one (1), two (2), or three (3) water operators compete against each other in a
competitive, fast-paced, question-and-answer tournament. Scored by a panel of judges, the team with the most points is declared the Top Ops Champion.
