We at the YMCA are excited for your interest to take the course and become an American Red Cross (ARC) certified Lifeguard. By the end, Lifeguard candidates will learn, demonstrate, and receive a certificate in the skills of Lifeguarding/First Aid/CPR and AED valid for 2 years. Please understand that registration does not guarantee one’s completion of the course and a certification.
Prior to registration, participants must perform and successfully complete the prerequisite skills to become candidates for the course. This includes 2 tests:
It is the responsibility of the participant to arrive and complete these prerequisite tests before the registration date closes. Once these tests are concluded and a participant is deemed successful, they are a candidate for the course and may register via our front desk on that day.
After the class registration closes, the candidates will receive a Welcome Letter containing all links, agenda, and materials. The Blended Learning section must be completed before the first day of the course, and verification via email proof will be required. The Welcome Letter can be found here.
Please contact the Assistant Aquatics Director via email should you have other questions or concerns at akuehne@ymcabaycity.org.
