NLS Instructor Recert
The NLS Instructor Recert includes a mandatory skill review, program updates and professional development sessions based on current information and aquatic research.
The 2011/2012 LSIT, NLS Instructor and First Aid Instructor Recert cycle has been postponed as ILCOR is due to release the new resuscitation standards in late October 2010. The new standards will affect all Lifesaving programs in all streams and will need to be part of the Instructor Recert cycle. Once the new standards are confirmed and the Lifesaving Society programs are revised, all Instructors will be notified of a timeline for Instructor Updates.
| NLS Instructor | Within past 7 years, or have completed NLS Instructor Course. |
Minimum of 4 hours plus an additional 1 hour for the NLS Recert Conductor Module.
NLS-Is that attend an NLS-I Recert will be reappointed on January 1st of the Recert cycle year.
Certification card will be issued on reappointment date, not necessarily the date the Recert was completed.
All appointed NLS-Is and NLS-I Apprentices (not completed co-teaches) regardless of certification date will be required to recertify within the designated 2 years cycle. Please ensure that you keep the Branch office informed of your current email and mailing address.
