Parents — if your teen is looking for a first job that actually teaches them something, read this one. 🏊
We're running lifeguard certification classes at Diventures Alpharetta this fall, and it's the starting point for a real career in aquatics — not just a summer gig.
📅 CLASS DATES (Saturday & Sunday, both days required)
• September 5–6
• October 3–4
• November 28–29
🔄 LIFEGUARD REVIEW — November 29 (one day, for guards already certified)
💵 $295 full lifeguard certification
💵 $161 lifeguard review / recertification
WHAT THEY'LL LEARN
Water rescues, spinal injury management and backboarding, First Aid, and CPR/AED for the Professional Rescuer. This is a hands-on class — most of it happens in the water. They finish with a two-year certification recognized nationwide at pools, waterparks, summer camps, and beaches.
WHERE IT LEADS
Every swim instructor on our team started with a lifeguard certification. It's the first credential on the path. We guard open water triathlons and teach swim lessons to every age — from six-month-olds to adults learning for the first time — and this certification is the prerequisite for all of it.
So if teaching swim is where they're headed, this is the right first step instead of something they backtrack for a year from now.
And honestly? Beyond the job, they'll learn to stay calm, read a room, and handle a real emergency. That's worth something no matter what they end up doing.
REQUIREMENTS
• Age 15 or older
• Strong swimmer — there's a prerequisite swim test at the start of day one (continuous swim, treading water, and retrieving a brick from the deep end)
• Available both days
Serving families in Alpharetta, Johns Creek, Roswell, Dunwoody and Duluth.
