Take a lifeguard training course, such as the American Red Cross Lifeguard Training class. This class will give you basic certification as a lifeguard and will teach you surveillance and rescue skills, CPR and first aid. Also, take other
classes as required including general first aid and CPR.

The purpose of the American Lifeguarding course is to teach candidates the knowledge and skills needed to prevent and respond to aquatic emergencies. The course content and activities prepare candidates to recognize and respond
quickly and effectively to emergencies and prevent drowning and injuries.

Upon successful completion of the Lifeguarding course, each participant will receive an American Lifeguard Certificate indicating Lifeguarding/First Aid, which is valid for three years, and an American Lifeguard Certificate indicating CPR/AED for the Professional Rescuer, which is valid for 1 year.

Lifeguarding is a favorite summer job. It is also more than just a job. You are looked upon as a rescuer. This is a great certification that teaches many life skills that can assist you even outside of your work environment. Our courses are taught in a clear and concise manner.
