1)
     ARC Safety Training for Swim Coaches certification (valid for 3 years)
                                                          -OR -
2)
     Email confirmation from the ARC that the individual has passed the Safety Training for Swim Coaches online exam, ALONG WITH one of the following certifications:

a.     ARC Lifeguarding, Lifeguarding/Waterfront, Lifeguarding/Waterpark, Basic Water Rescue, or Shallow Water Attendant
b.
    American Lifeguard Association First Time Lifeguard, Professional Lifeguard Challenge, or Lifeguard Recertification

d.
    StarGuard
e.

For Option #2, the expiration date shall be the earliest expiration date on either the ARC email (valid for 3 years) or the lifeguard certification.

Coaches are grandfathered and will not have to meet these new requirements until their current Safety Training certification expires.

 

CLARIFICATION:  The new requirement – the addition of the STSC online test – is mandatory as of 1 September 2008 for all coaches who renew their STSC certification ON OR AFTER that date.  If you renew your STSC certification PRIOR TO 1 September 2008, you don’t have to take the online test.
