Is the National Pool Lifeguard Qualification (NPLQ) recognised internationally?

 

Current RLSS UK National Pool Lifeguard Qualification (NPLQ) holders are eligible to apply for an ILS International Certificate, which may help them secure lifeguarding employment overseas. However, it is ultimately up to the employer's discretion whether they accept the qualification. For those seeking work overseas, we recommend checking directly with potential employers or local authorities to confirm whether an NPLQ qualification is accepted in their chosen country.
