Safety Training RequirementsInfo on dealing with American Red Cross for STSC CertificationThe following certifications are acceptable for the Safety Training for Swim Coach requirement: 1) ARC Safety Training for Swim Coaches certification (valid for 3 years) - OR - 2) Email confirmation from USA Swimming that the individual has passed the Safety Training for Swim Coaches online exam, ALONG WITH one of the following certifications: a. ARC Lifeguarding, Lifeguarding/Waterfront, Lifeguarding/Waterpark, Basic Water Rescue, or Shallow Water Attendant b. American Lifeguard Association First Time Lifeguard, Professional Lifeguard Challenge, or Lifeguard Recertification c. Ellis and Associates International Lifeguard Training or International Lifeguard Training Instructor License d. StarGuard e. YMCA Lifeguarding For Option #2, the expiration date shall be the earliest expiration date on either the ARC email (valid for 3 years) or the lifeguard certification. Coaches are grandfathered and will not have to meet these new requirements until their current Safety Training certification expires. KISS: Effective 9/1/08 – If a coach is updating his STSC cert with a lifeguard certification, then he must also pass the STSC online written test and submit that confirmation email to you along with his lifeguard cert. But if his STSC isn’t expiring any time soon, he doesn’t need to do anything until it does expire. |
