What To Expect
Our blended learning course starts with an online portion that goes over many of the skills and concepts that will be taught in class.
Students will then come in-person and must pass the prerequisite swim test that includes a swim-tread-swim sequence and a timed brick test.
Toward the end of the course, students must be able to show confidence in their water rescues and CPR skills when presented with various scenarios.
At the end of the course, students will be required to pass a paper test that goes over the importance of lifeguarding and its possibilities.

What Our Lifeguards Say
"Signing up for this lifeguard course was the best decision I made all summer. The instructors were incredibly helpful, patient, and broke down complex steps into simple, easy-to-learn techniques. I walked out feeling fully confident in my rescue skills!"
"The absolute gold standard of training! The team goes above and beyond to ensure every student masters the water saves and CPR drills. Their encouraging, hands-on teaching style made a challenging curriculum feel completely accessible and rewarding."
"I cannot recommend this program enough. Not only is the training thorough and professional, but the staff is genuinely invested in your success. They created a supportive environment that took the stress out of the final practical exams."
