Bronze Cross

Steps to Becoming a Lifeguard: Want to be a lifeguard? Here's what you need to do! For all lifeguarding courses, students MUST be available for the exam date (the last day of each program).

After successfully completing Bronze Medallion, the next step is Bronze Cross. Designed for lifesavers who want the challenge of more advanced training, this program includes an introduction to safety supervision in aquatic facilities. Bronze Cross teaches the difference between lifesaving and lifeguarding, the principles of emergency procedures and teamwork. Swimmers receive personal barrier devices and a whistle with registration, and must be available for the exam date.
