Step 5: Schedule your instructor-led training class
To reduce the incidence of no-call no-show, cancellation, and rescheduling, you must complete all online home-study course requirements before requesting an instructor-led training class.
Once you have successfully completed all your online home-study course requirements, and you arrived at the step in your online home-study course titled Schedule & Attend Instructor-Led Training Class, you should contact your Instructor or Lifeguard-Pro.org.
Your Instructor or Lifeguard-Pro.org will help you conveniently schedule your instructor-led training class. Simply, tell them your desired training dates, times, and location. Your Instructor or Lifeguard-Pro.org will approve the most convenient dates, times and location for your class.
Step 6: Pay for your instructor-led training class
If Lifeguard-Pro will be the instructor conducting your instructor-led training class, you must pay Lifeguard-Pro for that training class prior to attending your instructor-led training class. Lifeguard-Pro accepts credit cards, debit cards, ACH bank transfers (eChecks), domestic bank wire transfer, international back wire transfer, CashApp, Venmo, personal checks via postal mail, business check via postal mail, money orders via postal mail, and other methods upon request.
If a local instructor or your employer will be conducting your instructor-led training class, you must pay that instructor directly for that class prior to attending your instructor-led training class. The methods of payment that your instructor will accept can vary, so consult with your instructor about acceptable payment options before attending your training class.
Step 7: Attend instructor-led training class
At the instructor-led training class, you must successfully complete:
(1) All course required physical skills no less than 3 times under the direct supervision of your Instructor; and,
(2) Lifeguard, CPR and First Aid closed-book, instructor proctored, written final exam with a correct score of 90% or higher.
Step 8: Complete instructor-led training class
At the conclusion of your instructor-led training class, you and your instructor will fill-out and sign your Certification Request Form (CRF). If you are under the age of 18, your parent or legal guardian must sign the form for you. This form verifies that you successfully completed all course requirements for certification.
Lifeguard-Pro certification courses are task-based courses and not hourly-based courses, so class duration may vary between candidates.
Step 9: Request your certification card
Upload your completed and signed CRF to your Lifeguard-Pro.org profile in the section titled ‘Upload certification forms’. Then, click SAVE.
Lastly, from within your Profile, check the box titled ‘Issue my certification’ or notify your Instructor that you have completed all course requirements, and you are requesting your certification card.
Step 10: Receive your certification card
Upon satisfying all the course requirements detailed above, you can immediately download a hi-resolution digital image of your certification card.
Congratulations, you’re now a certified life guard!
