Publisher's Synopsis
AUSTSWIM has gained an outstanding national and international reputation for the training of quality teachers of swimming and water safety. Government, the aquatic industry and the community recognise AUSTSWIM awards as the industry standard for teachers of swimming and water safety. The high-quality courses from AUSTSWIM have been enhanced by manuals and associated learning materials which cater for the teacher-training needs of a rapidly expanding and vibrant aquatic industry. This manual represents the next step in AUSTSWIM's commitment to continuous improvement and quality outcomes and as such represents a significant step forward in providing an enhanced experience for students.
The improved four colour design and presentation will further assist course candidates to acquire the appropriate knowledge and skills to become competent teachers in aquatic education. The topics deemed necessary for learning all aspects of teaching swimming and water safety are covered by this manual. While these skills are being developed, every opportunity is taken to impart water safety knowledge, to reduce the likelihood of aquatic incidents, including drownings.
This manual plays a pivotal role in facilitating the delivery of quality swimming and water safety programs throughout Australia.
