Monthly Training
Stay Ready, Confident & Compliant
We offer monthly lifeguard training sessions designed for qualified lifeguards who already hold their RLSS National Pool Lifeguard Qualification (NPLQ) and want to maintain their skills — even if you’re currently not employed in a lifeguarding role.
Ongoing monthly training is widely recognised as industry best practice and helps you stay confident, competent and up to date with lifeguard standards. Whilst there is no strict legal frequency, the RLSS UK strongly encourages monthly training for lifeguards to maintain knowledge and competency, including practical rescue skills, CPR and first aid refreshers.
Why Monthly Training Matters
-
Maintain Competence: Monthly sessions help you practice and refine core skills such as scanning, rescue techniques, unconscious casualty management, CPR and first aid.
-
Build Confidence: Regular training keeps you confident and prepared for real‑world situations.
-
Support Renewal: To renew an NPLQ, the RLSS UK requires evidence of 20 hours of ongoing training/Continued Professional Development (CPD) completed within the last two years of your qualification before renewal assessment.
-
Recorded Training: Our sessions can be logged and evidenced to support your records for renewal or future employment.
