How old do you have to be to become a life guard?

How difficult is it to become a life guard in Canada?

  • I'm in my late 20's and want to become life guard certified. I took swimming lessons when I was younger but I don't remember the strokes. I'm in good shape but I'm not sure what level my swimming has to be at to become a lifeguard.

  • Answer:

    Each pool will have their own standards, but most want guards to have the Lifesaving Society's National Lifeguard Service award along with First Aid and CPR. The NLS award is available in a pool, waterfront, surf or waterpark variation. See the link below for prerequisites.
