COVID-19 Protocols:

A couple of things to put your mind at ease as you start to come back into the classroom setting:

LIFEGUARD COURSES:

Cleaning protocols have been increased
Equipment will be individualized as much as possible (mannequins, AED trainers, etc.)
Due to the nature of the Lifeguarding courses, there will be minimal contact required with other participants.
- For Lifeguard/Lifesaving procedures (Spinals, Unresponsive, etc) we will be using submersible mannequins where possible
- For physical standards required to be done on another person we will be teaching protocols to minimize risk - We will be switching to mannequins as soon as we are on the pool deck
All instructors are trained in updated COVID protocols

FIRST AID COURSES:

You will be set up with your own personal learning station (2m distance from the other stations)
Cleaning protocols have been increased
Equipment will not be shared amongst participants
Any skills involving partner work will be minimized, but when that is not possible, masks and gloves will be required to be worn.

Recertification Courses

Lifesaving Instructor Recert

The Lifesaving Society Lifesaving Instructor Recertification Course is designed for current Lifesaving Instructors whose certification is expiring or has recently expired. This one-day course focuses on professional development and ensures that instructors maintain the essential skills, knowledge, and teaching strategies to effectively deliver Lifesaving programs. Participants will be evaluated on their ability to demonstrate key lifesaving skills, provide effective feedback, manage diverse learning environments, and deliver courses with the highest instructional standards. The course also includes a review of updated teaching techniques, course content, and assessment strategies. This course is for evaluation purposes only, with no formal instruction provided. Successful candidates will renew their Lifesaving Instructor certification for an additional two years, ensuring their continued ability to deliver high-quality lifesaving training.
