LIFEGUARD (CSC EMPLOYEE) CERTIFICATION

Learn how to effectively prevent and respond to water emergencies with American Red Cross lifeguard training. You will learn how effective preparation and quick response times are vital to being a lifeguard while also understanding the crucial elements in helping to prevent drownings and injuries.  

This will be a blended learning course where you will have time in April to complete the online materials. 9 units/lessons will be offered in 7 days.

THE Original DATES have been ADJUSTED DUE TO A HEATER BEING INSTALLED ON THE POOL.  CLASS DATES are mostly accurate. Please continue to work on your American Red Cross Online class and finish before May 1.
