Overview

Royal Life Saving All Abilities is a nationally recognised course for swim teachers looking to gain specialist knowledge in teaching people living with a disability. Accreditation is valid for three years.

The All Abilities course will deliver the skills and knowledge required to effectively and safely, teach swimming and water safety skills to people with a disability. It will provide information on people living with a disability, their experiences and needs, and how you can best support them in aquatic activities.

Please note: Royal Life Saving Society NSW is not a CRICOS provider; it is unable to provide national training to overseas students holding a student visa.

Delivery Mode

Below are the steps and participant’s journey.

Step 1 Book a course. Upon fulfilling the prerequisite requirements, the All Abilities course material is delivered via a blended mechanism, involving online learning and on the job assessments, alongside third-party observation from an approved RLS Workplace Supervisor. Candidates must have access to a computer and the internet to access these online modules.

Step 2 Complete online modules. Candidates will be required to complete a self-paced online knowledge component. Only those who have completed the online modules in full will be able to complete the on-the-job assessments.

Step 3 Complete and Submit section 1 of the Unit Completion and Licence Workbook. This on-the-job assessment ensures the swim teacher can apply the skills learnt in the online course at their place of employment. The on-the-job component needs to be signed off by an approved RLS Workplace Supervisor. Candidates must submit the completed section 1 to their nearest Royal Life Saving office via email.

Step 4 Complete and Submit section 2 of the Unit Completion and Licence Workbook. In addition to the successful online and on-the-job assessments, candidates are required to complete a Swim Teacher - All Abilities Licencing Application. Candidates must submit the completed section 2 to their nearest Royal Life Saving office via email.

Section 1 and 2 of the Unit Completion and Licence Workbook may be submitted at the same time if suitable.

The amount of training is approximately 20 hours, comprising of:

· Online learning and assessment: 8 hours

· On-the-job teaching and assessment: 12 hours
