Summer Lifeguard Training Program at Water Country
We are proud to offer the Ellis & Associates International Lifeguard Training Program (ILTP). No experience is necessary; however, all applicants must successfully complete the Ellis & Associates Lifeguard Training Program before becoming a lifeguard.
Lifeguards work in the sun and shade, both in and out of the water, maintaining the highest standards of safety. Candidates must be able to swim and stand for long periods of time with exposure to sunlight and extreme temperatures.
Lifeguard candidates must have a vision of 20/25 in the best eye, corrected or uncorrected. Lifeguards interact with guests on a daily basis and must uphold a high level of customer satisfaction while adhering to all water safety standards.
