For Lifeguarding, Basic Life Support, First Aid/CPR/AED and all Instructor courses, your certification is good for 2 years from the last day of your completed course.
Sometimes the e-mails from the American Red Cross don't go through right away. Once your course record is completed by your instructor, you should be able to check this link to find your certification. https://www.redcross.org/take-a-class/digital-certificate
Classes are all non-refundable. However, for non-Instructor courses, you can just contact us with your situation and we can move you to a future course instead without paying a second time.
No. If you completed the Lifeguarding course but failed one or more of the required components for passing the class, you can not receive a certification. You would have to pay and complete the entire course again.
