Hy-Tek Computer Operator

Hy-Tek Computer Operator Voluntary Training

Per USA Swimming rules as of 1 Feb 2024, there is no Computer Operator certification. This volunteer training program can be used to learn about the Computer Operator position and gain experience before working the position on your own.

If you choose to use this as a building block towards becoming a certified Administrative Official (AO), some of your computer operator training sessions may count toward AO certification. Please review the Administrative Official certification requirements.
