Lifeguard-Pro is an internationally & nationally recognized Lifeguard, Water Safety Swim Instructor, and CPR & First Aid certification agency.
We serve all 50 U.S. states and 46 countries around the world -- so wherever you are, we're nearby!
There are over 4,200 drowning deaths per year in the USA. In many other countries the number of drowning deaths is even higher!
The exact number of annual worldwide drownings is unknown, but it is estimated to be over 100,000 deaths per year. The vast majority of these drowning deaths can be attributed to three simple public safety failures:
(1) The victim did not know how to swim effectively;
(2) The victims did not know how to effectively protect themselves nor their loved ones in and around the water; and,
(3) The swimming area was unsupervised by certified Lifeguards who were capable of rendering lifesaving assistance.
Lifeguard-Pro is dedicated to reducing the number of deaths by drowning worldwide by addressing these three public safety failures.
Lifeguard-Pro teaches the public to swim, teaches the public how to effectively protect themselves and their loved-ones in and around the water, and trains Lifeguards to better prevent and respond to aquatics emergencies. We are dedicated to enhancing public safety by making aquatics public safety training more available than ever before.
Our certified Lifeguards and Water Safety Swim Instructors protect millions of swimmers around the globe -- every day!

Dedicated to Making Public Safety Training More Available. Every employer, Lifeguard and Water Safety Swim Instructor (LP-WSI) candidate knows that the biggest problem with aquatics public safety training is that there simply is not enough available Lifeguard and Water Safety Swim Instructor training courses. Many cities have a scarcity of available certification courses. Many rural areas have none! This chronic lack of available Lifeguard and Water Safety Swim Instructor certification courses is a significant contributor to the incredibly high number of deaths by drowning every year. Nearly all drowning deaths are avoidable. By making Lifeguard and Water Safety Swim Instructor certification courses more available, Lifeguard-Pro reduces this tragically high number of drowning deaths. Support Lifeguard-Pro in our mission to make Lifeguard and Water Safety Swim Instructor certification courses more available. Together, we can save lives!

- Lifeguard-Youth Camp Certification. State and local governments have known for a long time that youth camp aquatics activities present unique and serious hazards to children. Yet, despite state and local regulations attempting to reduce those risks, the Lifeguard industry failed to provide a youth camp specific training course to help the states and local governments in achieving the goal of making youth camps safer for our children. Lifeguard-Pro responded with the nationwide public safety answer! To better protect the lives of children, Lifeguard-Pro created the nation’s first Lifeguard–Youth Camp certification course, which trains Lifeguards to better prevent and respond to emergencies in youth camp environments. The Lifeguard-Pro Lifeguard-Youth Camp certification protects the lives of children at youth camps across the entire country, and many countries around the world. We worked tirelessly with state and local governments to create a solution to better protect the lives of children at youth camps across the country. Lifeguard-Pro has undoubtedly improved national public safety!
- Lifeguard-Deep Pool Certification. Previously the Lifeguard industry provided insufficient training to guard the public safety in and around deep water swimming pools and diving catch wells. Lifeguard-Pro acted in creating the nation’s first Lifeguard-Deep Pool (max depth 20 ft.) certification course to better prevent and respond to emergencies in and around deep water pools and diving catch wells. Operators of deep water pools and diving catch wells (e.g., high schools, colleges, universities, competition pools, etc.) can now better prevent and respond to drownings at their aquatics facilities. Lifeguard-Pro continues to identify and solve national public safety hazards!
