2022 BSA Aquatics Supervision Courses for Adult Leaders
Be ready for the swimming and paddling season. Are you ready to conduct these activities safely with your unit? You should have already taken the BSA online courses: Safe Swim Defense and Safety Afloat. Do you have any water safety experience? Are you ready to conduct aquatic activities, such as: swimming, canoeing, kayaking, white-water rafting, tubing, etc., at non-BSA sites or without a responsible outfitter? When a BSA unit schedules an aquatic activity without a responsible outfitter, it is now required that a person age 21 or older holds valid Paddle Craft Safety and Swimming and Water Rescue Certifications. Likewise, Councilors offering Aquatic Merit Badges are required to take these courses. With this training, you can obtain these certifications

- Candidates must have recently completed their Safe Swim Defense and Safety Afloat online training.
- They must bring their completed BSA Medical forms on the day of the course.
- Participants must be able to pass the BSA Swim Test.
- Recover a 10 lb weight from 8 feet of water.

- A bag lunch, which will be a working lunch.
