Swim Instructor

Swim Instructors are trained using the Lifesaving Society's competency-based model, which provides them with the approaches and philosophies to adequately teach and evaluate Swim for Life lessons. This course will help prepare candidates by focusing on short- and long-term planning, safety supervision of classes, teaching techniques, and the principles of evaluation. Swim for Life Instructors are trained to teach the Swim for Life Program, Swim to Survive, and Canadian Swim Patrol (Rookie, Ranger, Star). Please note: This course will also include a shadow lesson component on Thursday or Tuesday nights where candidates will be getting hands on experience in lessons. 100% attendance & participation required. Pre-requisites: 15yrs+, Bronze Cross
