The lifesaving programs include the Canadian Swim Patrol and the Bronze Medal awards. The National Lifeguard Service® awards include NL Pool, NL Waterpark, NL Waterfront and NL Surf. The Leadership Training Programs are for instructors, examiners and trainers of the Society’s programs. In addition to these National mandatory programs, Branches may offer other programs such as learn-to-swim or first aid.
