Are you a Dealer? We’ve got you covered!
As a water treatment provider, you know the value of solid education, best practices and connecting with other like-minded water treatment professionals. The WQA Convention & Exposition provides a unique setting for all this and more.
WQA Business Boot Camp | Monday, April 17 |8 a.m. – 4 p.m.
Get started early with the WQA Business Boot Camp, one day before the Convention opens (additional fee applies).
Boot Camp is a day set aside for dealers to step away from working in their business to work on their business. Get access to rich interactive content focused on marketing and finance. Learn critical business skills you can use upon your return to work. Hear from experts in the field while learning from those beside you in the trenches.

Convention, Day One – Tuesday, April 18, 2023
The Convention kicks off with a dynamite presentation: “More than a Sale: Ethics and PFAS.” If you’re new to the industry you’ll want to join the next session, “I Bought a Water Company. Now What?” Then join the Dealer Section meeting, where dealers share ideas, tips and concerns with each other.
Depending on your area of interest or skill level, you will find plenty of education sessions that appeal directly to you – and many offer valuable continuing education credit toward your recertification. Check out “Well Disinfection,” “Creating a Self-Generating Sales Team,” or “Problem Water/Testing, Applications & Solutions,” then wrap up the afternoon with the Keynote Session at 3 p.m.
Convention, Day Two – Wednesday, April 19, 2023
Wednesday kicks off with the 2023 Consumer Opinion Study, a look at consumer opinions about water quality and water treatment. This study is conducted every two years by WQA, and members get an in-depth look at the data.
Education sessions that day include “Introduction to Softener Efficiency,” “Softening Water with High TDS,” and a Business Operations Panel session.
Then it’s time to hit the trade show floor: The expo hall is open from 11 a.m. until 5 p.m. Finish strong with a tasty Networking Reception featuring tempting food selections, refreshing beverages, and opportunities to meet new friends and renew acquaintances.

Convention, Day Three – Thursday, April 20, 2023
Thursday offers another blast of education beginning at 8:00 a.m. Maybe you’d be interested in “Toilet Talk – Lessons from Looking in the Back of the Toilet.” You also can see all the latest innovations and meet with suppliers at the Expo, from 9 a.m. until 2 p.m.
