Outstanding Group Training Benefits

Several of our most popular group training benefits include:

• Comprehensive, Preparatory Online Home-Study Course;
• Convenient Instructor-Led Training Class at Your Facility on the Dates You Reserve;
• Certifications Delivered at End of Instructor-Led Training;
• Better Customer Service (9am-9pm EST, 7-days a week, and FREE phone and live chat service for international students); and,
• Lowest Price Guarantee.

Let's us show you why so many of your peers across the country and around the world choose Lifeguard-Pro.

Convenient Training Format
Part-1 - Online Home-Study Course. This part of the course is a comprehensive, preparatory Online Home-Study Course that your candidates can complete from anywhere in the world prior to arriving at your facility. The Online Home-Study Course consists of all course required online textbooks, videos, exams and certification forms. This training is about 10 times more comprehensive than our competitor's program, and we demand a higher level of mastery than our competitor's program. For most Lifeguard and Water Safety Swim Instructor Courses, the Online Home-Study Course is estimated to take about 12.0 hours to complete. Of course, recertification courses require much less time. Our built-in quality assurance measures in our Online Home-Study Course thoroughly document and verify each candidate's completion of all course required academic knowledge. This legal documentation better protects employers against legal negligence claims.  Our Online Home-Study Course not only documents and verifies that the candidate successfully completed all course required academic training, it also saves the employer time and money by allowing the candidates to learn from home. Quality Assurance & Convenience!

Part-2 - Instructor-Led Training Class. After your candidates successfully finish their Online Home-Study Course, they will be thoroughly prepared to effectively participate in the Instructor-Led Training Class. Given that the candidates have already mastered all course required academic knowledge in the Online Home-Study Course, the candidates' quality of participation and learning will be significantly enhanced, while the required training time will be greatly reduced to about 12.0 hours -- again saving the employer time and money! For your convenience, the Instructor-Led Training Class will be conducted by professional instructors at your facility on the dates you reserve.

Lifeguard-Pro certified instructors train your staff at your facility, so that your staff can be trained in the environment in which they will be working. Training at your job site and practicing your facility’s Emergency Action Plan and Standard Operating Procedures undoubtedly make your swimming area safer. We believe it is simply a poor risk management solution to employ safety staff (i.e., Lifeguards, Water Safety Swim Instructors, CPR & First Aid employees) who have been generically trained at a foreign location by an unknown (possibly volunteer) Instructor. Remember, the quality of your staff's safety training can be the difference between life and death for your patrons. Quality safety training saves lives and protects your business from lawsuits!

The professional instructors will train the candidates on how to perform all course required physical skills and then verify each successfully completed skill prior to certifying a candidate. Each candidate will successfully perform each course required physical skill no less than 3 times, while under the direct supervision of a Lifeguard-Pro certified Instructor. Our competitor requires candidates only to successfully perform each required skill once. Lifeguard-Pro elevates the industry standard for Lifeguard training. By Lifeguard-Pro documenting and verifying each candidate's successful completion of all required academic knowledge and skills prior to certification our built-in quality assurance process better protects employers against legal negligence claims. Better Legal Protection!

Unlike our competitor, we do not use inexperienced, seasonal, or volunteer instructors to conduct your staff's lifesaving training, just to save us money. Rather, we believe that your staff's lifesaving safety training should be provided by experienced, professional rescue instructors. After all, the quality of your staff safety training can have life and death consequences to your patrons, and catastrophic financial consequences to your business.  Don't you agree that your safety training should be conducted by professional instructors?

Better Legal Protection. Employers can rest assured that all your employees' online training activities are tracked and recorded for your benefit to better protect you in the event of a Wrongful Death or Personal Injury lawsuit against the employer. In the event of a lawsuit against your facility, you will likely be required to provide extensive documentation detailing your precise staff training to prove that your staff was properly trained and certified in accordance with all applicable laws, regulations, rules, insurance policies, and the published training requirements of your certification company. Our competitor does NOT precisely document the training provided to candidates, like Lifeguard-Pro. This failure can create a crippling legal problem for you. Failure to precisely document your staff academic knowledge and training can create a hazard to your patrons, legal liability to you, and even put your facility out of business!

Fortunately for you, all Lifeguard-Pro courses require every certification candidate to turn every page of each textbook, answer approximately two questions per page, view every video from start to finish, and answer every exam question with a total 90% correct score or higher. And, we document all of it in your candidates' records so that you can prove that your staff was meticulously trained to comply with industry standards, regulatory requirements, insurance policy obligations, and the published training requirements of Lifeguard-Pro.

Lifeguard-Pro was specifically designed to better protect your facility in the event of a Wrongful Death or Personal Injury lawsuit. We thoroughly document your staff training to better protect your legally. Don't let poor quality safety training documentation jeopardize the continued existence of your facility. Let our experience be your benefit!

Ignorance is Not a Legal Justification. Most employers don’t know they may be legally ordered to provide documentary proof of all academic knowledge and skills taught to their staff during their staff's safety training and certification process. Most employers discover that they should have legally documented the safety training and certification process only after a court has order them to produce records that they do not have.  Let Lifeguard-Pro protect you with thoroughly documented staff training!

Remedial Training
Students Unable to Pass Online Home-Study Course. We understand that you may have a significant investment in your staff. You may have even hired them from outside of the U.S.A. and sponsored them to come to the U.S.A. to work for you. We respect that you may not be able to easily replace staff members if they fail the course. Therefore, if a candidate fails an academic exam, the candidate will be provided two additional opportunities to take the exam. If the student is struggling because English is not their primary language or they are experiencing computer or internet problems, the student may request a remedial training class by an instructor. We care about your success!

Students Unable to Pass Physical Training. If a candidate is unable to successfully complete all course required physical skills during the Instructor-Led Training Class, your local Lifeguard-Pro certified Instructor will work with the challenged candidate for up to an additional 4.0 hours to help them improve their performance, so that they can satisfy all certification requirements. If after this additional instruction the candidate is still unable to satisfy all course requirements, the candidate will be invited to continue their training by participating in any neighboring training class at no additional charge. Your goal is our goal too!

Advanced Training
Lifeguard Youth Camp Certification. We all know that youth camps present unique aquatic hazards and risks to campers; and there are often specific laws, regulations, rules, and standards that dictate the legal operation of youth camp aquatic facilities. Yet, there has never been a nationally recognized lifeguarding certification course that trained candidates to identify and respond to these known unique youth camp hazards and risks, and comply with these specific youth camp operating laws, regulations, rules, and standards. Since you are being held responsible for your staff being able to effectively prevent and respond to the unique aquatic hazards and risks of a youth camp, and comply with unique youth camp operating laws, regulations, rules, and standards, doesn't it make sense to train your staff to these requirements? Upgrade for FREE to our nationally recognized Lifeguard-Youth Camp certification to better protect your campers and facility!

FREE Upgrade to Lifeguard-Youth Camp Certification. For FREE, we upgrade all your Lifeguard-Swimming Pool and Lifeguard-Waterfront staff certifications to the only nationally recognized Lifeguard-Youth Camp. The nationally recognized Lifeguard-Youth Camp upgraded certification includes all of the training of the Lifeguard-Swimming Pool and Lifeguard-Waterfront courses, plus the specific national Lifeguard-Youth Camp training to better prepare your aquatic staff to prevent and respond to known youth camp hazards and risks, and comply with applicable youth camp operating requirements. A Lifeguard specifically trained to work in a youth camp is undoubtedly a superior risk management choice over a standard Lifeguard. Isn't it time you upgraded to the nationally recognized Lifeguard-Youth Camp certification? The upgrade is FREE for licensed youth camps!

Specialty Lifeguard Certification Courses. Lifeguard-Pro leads the Lifeguard industry in offering more specialty Lifeguard certification courses than any other nationally recognized certification agency. We offer 6 specialty lifeguarding courses. Lifeguard-Pro does not believe in the old-style Lifeguard training, where one course is optimal for all aquatic environments. That is the program of yester-year. Rather, we believe in a more modern approach. Lifeguard-Pro holds that a Lifeguard specifically trained to prevent and respond to emergencies in the precise aquatic environment in which they work will be better prepared to protect the public and avoid lawsuits for their employer. That is why Lifeguard-Pro makes sure that your staff is trained to the exact needs of your aquatic facility by letting you select from 6 different lifeguarding certification courses: (1) Lifeguard-Shallow Pool (max depth 5 ft.); (2) Lifeguard-Swimming Pool (max depth 12 ft.); (3) Lifeguard-Deep Pool (max depth 20 ft.); (4) Lifeguard-Waterfront; (5) Lifeguard-Youth Camp; and, (6) Lifeguard-Water Park. Select the lifeguarding course that trains your staff to supervise your specific type of facility!

Certifications Delivered Immediately at End of Training
We provide you with all your staff certification cards immediately at the end of training! No more endlessly waiting for certification cards. No more running the legal risk of opening your aquatic facility before you have all your staff certification cards in hand. Lifeguard-Pro better protects your business!

PRICE STILL NOT LOW ENOUGH?
If the National Group Discount isn't a low enough price for you, choose from one of our other incredible price options.

• Inflation Buster (90% of whatever you paid our competitor last year for your staff training); or,
• Lowest Price Guarantee (90% of the lowest priced publicly available course in your local area).

Lifeguard-Pro will never be unsold by its competitor.

Lifeguard-Pro Promises You the LOWEST PRICE - GUARANTEED!

Option 2:   INFLATION BUSTER

This price option guarantees that your safety training cost will be LESS THAN LAST YEAR! This price option guarantees that your price will only be 90% of whatever you paid our competitor last year.

To qualify for this outstanding option all you must do is simply provide us with the verifiable invoice for your training last year. Lifeguard-Pro guarantees you a lower price!

Lifeguard-Pro will only price-match training that complies with national industry standards.

To reduce training costs, many ill-advised businesses hire safety training instructors who violate many of the above regulations, laws, and requirements by:

• Shortening the duration of the required safety training to such a short length that it violates the certifying company's legal training requirements; and/or,
• Inflating student-to-instructor ratios to a ratio that exceeds the certifying company’s legal training requirements.

For example, if you are using our competitor's Lifeguard-Waterfront certification course, your instructor must spend a minimum of approximately 32.0 hours in-person with your candidates, and limit class size to 10 candidates to 1 instructor. If you violate these published certification requirements during your staff training, you could possibly be held negligent and in violation of national youth camp standards, state law, state regulations, U.S. Department of Labor regulations, and your insurance policy; and, in the event of a Wrongful Death or Personal Injury lawsuit, the court could possibly hold you negligent, and your insurance company could possibly deny your insurance claim, which all too often is the end of your business. Most employers don’t understand the dire consequences of violating safety certification training requirements, until it is too late. Don't skimp or cheat on your safety certification training!

Consequently, Lifeguard-Pro will only price-match safety training that is conducted responsibly. We will not discount prices to a level that wins your account but puts the survival of your entire business in jeopardy.  Lifeguard-Pro protects your business!

Note our industry-leading, comprehensive, online Home-Study Course enables us to LEGALLY shorten the required Instructor-Led Training Class time for Lifeguard and WATER SAFETY SWM INSTRUCTOR courses. That saves you time and money, enhances the quality of your training, and fully complies with standard industry operating requirements. Isn't it time you joined your peers and upgraded to Lifeguard-Pro?

Option 3:   LOWEST PRICE GUARANTEE

This price option guarantees that Lifeguard-Pro will not be undersold.

With our LOWEST PRICE GUARANTEE, you will only pay 90% of the lowest priced similar safety training course in your local area.

Requesting your LOWEST PRICE GUARANTEE from Lifeguard-Pro is simple. Just email your request to us with the link to our competitor’s publicly advertised course. It’s that easy!

Lifeguard-Pro promises the highest quality safety training at the LOWEST PRICE - GUARANTEED!

To qualify for this outstanding price guarantee, our competitor's course that you are requesting us to price-match must be:

• In compliance with nationally recognized certification training standards;
• The same exact course as the Lifeguard-Pro course; and,
• Available to the public.

We have no doubt that once you upgrade to Lifeguard-Pro, you’ll discover why so many of your peers happily choose Lifeguard-Pro.

Option 4:   MAKE YOUR EMPLOYEE AN INSTRUCTOR - SLASH YOUR CERTIFICATION COSTS BY 65-90%

Becoming a Lifeguard Instructor or WATER SAFETY SWM INSTRUCTOR Trainer (WSIT) is easier and quicker than you might think. Instructor courses are not physically intensive courses. Rather, they are simply administrator courses, which can be successfully completed by almost responsible adult with a clipboard who is dedicated to evaluating and documenting the candidates' performance in accordance with the course provided textbook and instructional videos. Have no fear, you can do it!

In a few short days, we can train one of your employees to become a Lifeguard Instructor or WATER SAFETY SWM INSTRUCTOR Trainer (WSIT).

Then, your employee instructor can conduct your course required Instructor-Led Training Session to certify your employees.

Not only will you gain greater control over your required employee safety training, but you'll also slash your certification costs by an amazing 65-90%!
