The purpose of the Lifeguarding Instructor/Instructor Trainer Recertification course is to give instructors and instructor trainers the opportunity to review the course knowledge and skills within a formal course setting in order to maintain their American Red Cross Lifeguarding Instructor or Instructor Trainer certification. Successfully completing this course is the only method for maintaining certification as an American Red Cross Lifeguarding instructor or instructor trainer. The course combines eLearning with an on-site skills session. Participants must be registered with a personal email and phone number to receive course information and instructions to access the pre-course eLearning program. Participants must complete the eLearning program prior to participating in the course, present a photo ID and proof of a current (or expired by no more than 1 year) American Red Cross Lifeguarding Instructor certification, and bring a pocket mask. Note: this course does not renew basic Lifeguarding certifications.
