Lifeguard Certification
If you are interested in working as a Lifeguard or Shallow Water Lifeguard for Montgomery Village Foundation (MVF), the American Red Cross Lifeguard Training Course will prepare you for certification in Lifeguarding, CPR/AED for the Professional Rescuer, and First Aid. To enroll, participants must be 15 years old by the last day of the course (proof of age required) and pass a pre-screen test on the first pool day to continue with the course. Interested individuals must apply for a Lifeguard position online and schedule an interview. Applicants who receive a conditional job offer must complete the necessary hiring paperwork. Once the paperwork is complete, participants will be invited to register for the training class. For more information, contact Aquatics Manager Lauren Hydorn at lhydorn@mvf.org.
If you have questions, would like to receive updates on upcoming lifeguard training sessions, or need assistance locating an American Red Cross Lifeguard Training Course, contact Aquatics Manager Lauren Hydorn at lhydorn@mvf.org.
