Lifesaving Certification Courses

These certification courses empower candidates with the knowledge, skills, and judgment necessary to perform lifesaving duties in aquatic environments. The curriculum covers water rescue techniques, aquatic surveillance, first response care, and prevention strategies.

Aquatics Camps

At the Carleton Pool, our goal is to create an environment for children to develop a passion for aquatics through exciting challenges and positive role models while building new friendships.

First Aid Courses

Our First Aid courses follow the Lifesaving Society curriculum and are approved by the Ontario Workplace Safety and Insurance Board (WSIB).
