    Description

    LSS Swim Instructor (20 hr): The Lifesaving Society Swim Instructor course prepares the instructor to teach and evaluate the swimming strokes and related skills found in the Lifesaving Society swim for life program. Candidates acquire proven teaching methods, planning skills, and a variety of stroke development drills and correction techniques.
    Prerequisites: 15 years of age by the last day of the course; Bronze Cross certification (need not be current).
    Required Material: Teaching swim for life, Swim for Life Award Guide and Instructor Manual (available as an add-on during registration).
    Verification of Identity Policy:
    All candidates; whether original or recertification, must verify their identity to the instructor. Original, copy, or digital copies of identification are accepted.
    The Lifesaving Society Ontario (the """"Society"""") requires that the candidates legal name must appear on all certifications it issues. Candidates may also provide a preferred name, which may be displayed on the certification if requested; however, it does not replace the legal name.
