Class Format: Saturday 8am-8pm
There is no online blended learning component required for this class.  

Within 24 hours of submitting your registration, you are required to send proof of current (or expired less than 30 days by the start of the course) lifeguarding certification to aquatics@bellevueclub.com. If this is not sent, you may be removed from the class roster.

This course provides training and certification in the American Red Cross Lifeguarding Instructor Course, enabling successful participants to instruct lifeguarding courses at their home facility (must be a location approved by the American Red Cross). Click here for schedule and registration.

Blended Learning courses require at-home computer and internet access. You will be emailed a link to gain access to the online portion at least one week in advance of the class start date.

To successfully complete the course, you must be at least 17 years of age, successfully pass a lifeguarding skills test at the beginning of this class, attend all class sessions, complete all online learning modules, demonstrate competency in all required skills and scenarios, and pass the final written exams with a minimum grade of 80 percent.

Upon successful completion, you will receive certification as an American Red Cross Lifeguarding instructor. This class does not include basic-level lifeguarding certification renewal, but you can select this as an add-on option at registration.
