Applications for the Youth Aquatic Accreditation Program have been extended until 31 May 2024. This allows for more free opportunities for aspiring swim instructors and more young people making waves in the aquatics industry.
The program provides assistance to young people undertaking accreditation to ensure they are qualified to teach swimming and water safety.
Additionally, 16-year-olds are now also eligible to participate in the program and it will now offer the opportunity to learn to teach people with a disability how to swim.
