National Lifeguard update
The Lifesaving Society has updated the National Lifeguard
program following a review to ensure its curriculum and performance
standards remain current, relevant and grounded in the competencies
required by lifeguards. Read about the key changes.
In New Brunswick, National Lifeguard Instructors must attend a
National Lifeguard Update Clinic. The clinic is mandatory and is
worth 3 credits towards your leadership recertification. The first
available clinic is scheduled November 5, 2022 at
the University of Moncton.

release of the revised Bronze medal awards! The update improves
skill progressions for a seamless flow into National Lifeguard and
sets candidates up for success as they move through the Society's
lifesaving, assistant lifeguard and lifeguard continuum.
