The Adult Lifeguard & Swim Instructor School will put candidates through all of the required courses to become a certified Lifeguard and a certified Swim Instructor for FREE!
This would be perfect for stay-at-home parents, retirees, or any other mature adults looking for a part-time position!
Application Process for Adult Lifeguard & Swim Instructor School
- Candidates will need to be able to confidently swim (but do not need to be an expert, as we will work on increasing endurance and strength throughout the program).
- Interested candidates must submit their resumes to the Mayer Aquatic Centre by March 2024 (final date to be determined).
- We will then conduct dry and wet interviews to assess candidates' swimming abilities.
- We will do some training prior to summer and then candidates must work a minimum of one Public Swim every 30 days over the summer months.
- There will be a contract to sign outlining minimum hours required to work once candidates are certified. These hours to work will mostly be weekday Earlybird, morning, and afternoon shifts from September until the end of June. Additional hours can be picked up if interested.
- As soon as candidates have successfully completed the program, they will receive a Conditional Letter of Offer and must complete the City of Camrose onboarding process to become part of the Mayer Aquatic Centre team!
