NATIONAL BEACH LIFEGUARD COURSE INFORMATION
If you need technical information on the content of a NBLQ course then
contact me. Remember there are no
pre-requisites other than an ability to swim 400m in less than 8
minutesin a pool.However, it is an
advantage to be 'ocean friendly'.The
qualification carries International Recognition in a practical and
real sense and those that successfully attain the qualification and excel on
a course may allow their name to be submitted to the RNLI database with a
view to becoming a RNLI Beach Lifeguard in the future. Please remember that
attendance on a course does not
guarantee that you will achieve the qualification. It is wise to remember
that at the conclusion of the course there will be independent assessment by
Assessors on behalf of the qualifying body, Institute of Qualified
Lifeguards.
Are you interested ? Have you got the team spirit and are ready for a
personal challenge? So if you are up for it and are over 16 years of
age, have a good
swimming ability, fit and are able to work in a team then there is no time
like the present. Sign up and get training !!
