Your PWNA Membership Just Got Better: Core Training Courses Now Included!

It’s not the skid. It’s not the surface cleaner. It’s the safety mistake you didn’t know you were making. The DOT stop you weren’t ready for. The chemical exposure nobody trained your new tech on. The runoff complaint that turns into a fine.

At PWNA, we’re committed to building a better, safer, and more professional pressure washing industry, and that starts with world-class education. So we’re thrilled to announce a major upgrade to your membership:

Four foundational safety and compliance courses are now included with your PWNA membership at no extra cost.

No add-on fees. No fine print. Just log in and start learning.

The Four Safety Courses Now Included With Membership

1. OSHA 1910 Training

OSHA 1910 is the general industry standard that covers how workplaces keep employees safe, and yes, your jobsite counts. OSHA 1910 Training helps you understand the rules that apply to your crew so you can build safe habits before an inspector, an insurer, or an accident forces the issue.

2. DOT Compliance Training

If you’re hauling a water tank, a skid, or a loaded trailer down the highway, the Department of Transportation has opinions about how you do it. DOT Compliance Training helps you navigate the regulations that apply to your rigs, so your next roadside stop is a non-event instead of a bad day.

3. Respirator Safety Training

Sodium hypochlorite, degreasers, strippers: this industry runs on chemistry, and your lungs don’t get a do-over. Respirator Safety Training covers how to protect yourself and your crew when the job calls for respiratory protection.

4. Environmental Best Practices

Where does your wash water go when it leaves the driveway? Your customers, your municipality, and the EPA all care about the answer. Environmental Best Practices helps you handle runoff and wastewater responsibly, protecting the environment and your business from avoidable trouble.

These are the same high-value, career-building courses that have helped power washing professionals step up their safety game, protect their crews, and stay ahead of regulations. Now they’re part of your PWNA membership, because we believe safety shouldn’t be optional. It should be accessible.

Why These Four?

Because they cover the risks almost every pressure washing business faces, whether you’re a one-truck owner-operator or running multiple crews:

• On the job: handling chemicals and working in the field (OSHA and respirator safety)
• On the road: hauling equipment between jobs (DOT)
• After the job: where your water and chemistry end up (environmental)

Together, they reduce risk, limit liability, and show your clients you take your profession seriously. That matters when you’re bidding commercial work, talking to property managers, or shopping for pressure washing business insurance.
