Lifeguarding

Lifeguards protect lives every day. Whether you’re guarding a pool or preparing for a career in public service, this training lays the foundation for leadership and trust.

Taught by certified instructors, our lifeguard programs meet national standards for safety and preparedness. Courses include water rescues, CPR/AED, and First Aid.

All lifeguard participants must complete the required swimming skills prerequisite prior to taking and completing the final skills assessment. The prerequisite skills assessments include a swim-tread-swim sequence.

Earn your lifeguarding certification from the American Red Cross. Our courses reflect the latest techniques based on science and best practices to ensure that you are properly trained and prepared for emergencies in and around the water.
