For the New Mexico Swimming Pools Contractor (GS-25) exam, preparation is not only about having the listed references. It is about learning how to use those references, recognize key terms, locate sections quickly, and apply pool construction, spa construction, code, concrete, shotcrete, reinforcing, excavation, pipe, and safety knowledge with confidence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe 1 Package supports candidates by combining the listed references with \u003cstrong\u003e1 year of course access\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eApplication Service\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eBusiness Formation\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eEIN Filing with the IRS\u003c\/strong\u003e, and \u003cstrong\u003eContractor Compliance Guidance\u003c\/strong\u003e. Students can use the course to focus their review on New Mexico commercial and residential code material, IBC and IRC navigation, International Swimming Pool and Spa Code navigation, pool and spa system concepts, OSHA safety, concrete mixtures, reinforcing bars, shotcrete, pipe and excavation, sitework, and reference navigation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e1 Exam Prep’s approach is practical and exam-oriented. The goal is to help candidates reduce confusion, organize their study routine, and build confidence through repeated reference navigation and trade-focused review. Candidates still need to study consistently and understand the material, but a structured course, the correct references, application support, and business setup guidance can make the preparation and startup process more manageable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMany GS-25 candidates have pool construction, spa construction, concrete, shotcrete, pipe installation, excavation, pool service, residential construction, commercial construction, or field experience but are less familiar with moving through several references under exam pressure or organizing the business setup process. 1 Exam Prep helps support that transition by encouraging organized study, reference familiarity, practice-oriented preparation, application organization, business setup support, and a clearer plan for the next steps.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 style=\"color: #d32f2f;\"\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 style=\"color: #d32f2f;\"\u003eWhat is included in The 1 Package?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis package includes the listed GS-25 references, the provided business books note of \u003cstrong\u003eIncludes Lines 2-4\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003e1 year of course access\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eApplication Service\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eBusiness Formation\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eEIN Filing with the IRS\u003c\/strong\u003e, and \u003cstrong\u003eContractor Compliance Guidance\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 style=\"color: #d32f2f;\"\u003eWhat is the total cost?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe total cost is \u003cstrong\u003e$3135\u003c\/strong\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2 style=\"color: #d32f2f;\"\u003eIs there a refundable deposit?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes.
