Lifeguard Blended Learning- Red Cross Certification Course
Become a Certified Lifeguard with the Red Cross!
Ready to make a difference and build skills that last a lifetime? Join our American Red Cross Lifeguard Certification Course! You’ll learn lifesaving water rescue techniques, CPR/AED, and first aid while gaining the confidence to keep people safe around the water.
To get the most out of your training, be sure to complete the online learning portion before the first day of class. You’ll also attend a prerequisite swim session ahead of time to show your comfort with the water skills you’ll be using.
Plus—you’ll receive your very own lifeguard hip pack, CPR mask, and whistle to use during the course and beyond!
Finish the online material, attend the swim session, and you’ll be all set to dive into class!
