National Lifeguard Recertification
The National Lifeguard Recertification course allows currently certified or recently expired National Lifeguards to renew their certification by successfully completing the official Lifesaving Society recertification evaluation. This evaluation confirms that candidates still meet the required professional standard in scanning, fitness, judgment, rescue response, teamwork, and emergency care.
This is not a full instructional course. It is an official recertification evaluation intended for candidates who are already familiar with National Lifeguard standards and test items.
If you need a different date or time, please email us and we can try to arrange one together.
