Description

National Build & Program A Pool Workshop (BAP) is a practical, program-first workshop for aquatic leaders planning a new facility, expanding, or renovating. Built on TAP’s philosophy that Programming Precedes Design, BAP helps you define the right program mix, staffing needs, operating rhythms, and revenue strategy before you lock in square footage, depths, and features.

You’ll leave with a clearer plan for building an aquatic center that can actually run well—serving your community while moving toward cost recovery and long-term sustainability. Whether you lead a municipal, school, nonprofit, or private facility, BAP gives you a framework to make smarter decisions, avoid expensive design mistakes, and align stakeholders around a shared vision.

Best for: parks & recreation leaders, school district operators, aquatic directors, project teams, architects/owners’ reps, and swim program leaders involved in facility planning.
