Need Help Choosing an SSI Certification?
Contact Swim Schools International for guidance on the appropriate training pathway for your experience and teaching goals.
Prepare for a Swimming Instructor Certification Enquiry
Choose a training pathway based on the learners you intend to teach, your current experience and the requirements of the employer, facility or jurisdiction where you plan to work. Course completion does not guarantee employment, and acceptance can vary between organisations.
Information to prepare
- Your country and preferred training location or delivery format.
- Current swimming, teaching, coaching or aquatic experience.
- The learner groups you intend to teach, such as children, adults, babies or developing swimmers.
- Existing first-aid, lifesaving, safeguarding or teaching qualifications.
- Any employer, facility or regulatory requirements you already know.
- Your preferred timeframe, subject to confirmed course availability.
How to compare SSI pathways
Level 1 provides a foundation for teaching developing swimmers. Level 2 addresses more advanced stroke development. Adult and baby/toddler pathways focus on the needs of those learner groups, while React Right covers emergency-response preparation. Exact prerequisites, assessment, delivery and certification scope should be confirmed before enrolment.
Compare the complete swimming teacher training pathway, review the certification FAQ, or contact SSI when your situation does not fit a standard pathway.
Before making payment
- Confirm the course title, included components and current fee.
- Confirm dates, venue, attendance and assessment requirements.
- Check cancellation, transfer and refund terms.
- Ask the intended employer or authority whether the certification meets its requirements.
- Keep a copy of the confirmed course information and receipt.
The enquiry form above helps SSI direct your request. Do not submit sensitive medical, identity or payment information unless the form specifically requires it through an appropriate secure field.
Before enrolling, review the SSI course enrolment, payment and participation terms.
