lifeguard certification

Pool safety license

Lifeguard certification is the credential obtained by completing a training course in water rescue, CPR, and first aid.

Most pools, beaches, and water parks require staff to hold current certification from organizations like the American Red Cross.

Certification typically expires after two years: My lifeguard certification needs renewing before summer.
