Survival Swim Instructor Training

Watch Me Swim, LLC offers a comprehensive training program for individuals who have a desire to teach children life-saving skills and make a difference in their communities. Instructor trainees work alongside a Certified Watch Me Swim Instructor and are provided hands-on training with children of various ages and abilities over a six week period. The in-water training is taught in conjunction with theoretical development through self-study, lessons and video review. The instructor trainee will study concepts in child development and psychology, behavioral knowledge, child anatomy, and physiology. Through learning these concepts, the instructor trainee will be able to successfully teach a student aquatic survival skills along with recreational swimming skills.  All instructor trainees will be expected to follow all Watch Me Swim policy and procedures beyond their initial training. There are also opportunities, each year, for ongoing development beyond the initial training through workshops and seminars.

Upon completion of the training, new instructors receive a Watch Me Swim Certificate of Completion, advertised on the Watch Me Swim website and all social media platforms. Instructors will also receive ongoing business and professional development support.
