The Lifesaving Society's Credit

encouraging leadership personnel to learn and improve through
continuing education and professional development:

To recertify

the fillable Credit Form to your computer
or tablet.
- Record your credits. Credits for other agency certfications and
teaching Swim for Life require the signature of the course
evaluator or the pool supervisor.
- Print or save the completed form.
- E-mail the completed fillable form to info@lifesavingnl.ca, fax
to 709-738-1475, or mail the completed Credit Form to the Society's
office. Payment is required before your new certifications cards
are issued, so please call us with your credit form information or
include a cheque when you mail the form to us.
