Registration of Optional Units for Pool Lifeguard Courses

Posted on 7th December 2017

Following the recent implementation of revised first aid qualifications, and to better enable us to monitor learner completions, the option to register the following optional units as part of the Pool Lifeguard qualification have been removed:

  • First Aid at Work
  • Emergency First Aid at Work
  • CPR and AED
  • CPR and Anaphylaxis

The Backboard Application Within Leisure Facilities optional unit is still registerable as part of the Pool Lifeguard qualification.

The above optional units can still be taught as part of a Pool Lifeguard course, which is still supported by the existing course resources, however they must now be registered as separate courses via STA Online.

If you have any questions regarding this change, please do not hesitate to get in touch with us.
