Supervision Planning Professional Development
The Supervision Planning module is designed for staff tasked with developing and implementing the lifeguard supervision plan at an aquatic facility. While targeted at Facility Managers and Duty Managers, anyone interested in knowing more about the Guidelines for Safe Pool Operations (GSPO), the supervision planning process and how to best lead a lifeguard team will also benefit greatly from completing the module. The content in the module is based on the Aquatic Supervision Planning guidelines within the GSPO. It presents this information in a practical, easy-to-understand format designed to enable participants to connect and apply the information to their day-to-day work context.
