Join us! YMCA Red Cross Lifeguard Recertification Course

An abbreviated Lifeguarding course that reviews course content in addition to practice and testing of skills and emergency team response. To participate in the recertification course participants must possess a Red Cross certificate for Lifeguarding with CPR/AED for Professional Rescuers and First Aid (current certification or certification expired by no more than 30 days). Students who successfully complete this course will receive a certificate for Lifeguarding with CPR/AED for Professional Rescuers and First Aid valid for 2 years.
Class duration will depend upon enrollment, although please be prepared to be present for the entirety of the time outlined if needed. 100% attendance is required to be eligible to pass.
Registration is non-refundable and non-transferable. Please ensure you meet all eligibility requirements and are completely confident in your ability to pass the pre-requisite swim test and perform required skills to standard with little coaching, as dues paid will be forfeited for those who do not pass the course.
