Lifeguard Training Classes
New Students & Recertifications
Lifeguarding will help you develop skills and experience that will be valued by colleges and future employers. It's a great way to demonstrate what you can offer. Colleges and employers look for applicants who can deal effectively with people, who have a take charge attitude and who are willing to work to develop new skills.
Skills You Will Learn in Each Class Listed Below:
-
Surveillance skills to help you recognize and prevent injuries
-
Rescue skills - in the water and on land
-
First aid training and professional rescuer CPR - to help you prepare for any emergency
-
Professional lifeguard responsibilities like interacting with the public and addressing uncooperative patrons

Lifeguard Training, First Aid, and CPR/AED Certifications (which are Valid for Two (2) Years and are updated through the recertification course)
