What is the purpose of a Crossover Course?

A crossover course is designed for people who already hold current lifeguarding certification from an approved organization and want to obtain the American Red Cross Lifeguarding or Shallow Water Lifeguarding credential in an abbreviated format. It focuses on ARC-specific requirements and lets you demonstrate the necessary skills and knowledge without repeating the entire introductory program. It isn’t for untrained individuals, it doesn’t waive all prerequisites, and it includes in-person skills checks rather than being online-only.
