02/10/2024  |  By: UniLEARN

SUSS UniLEARN is excited to announce the collaboration with Singapore Red Cross Academy on the First Responder on Water Safety Program, with funding support by SUSS UniLEARN-Temasek Foundation Grant.

While First Aid skills are crucial, water safety is just as essential. Participants would need to attend a 1-hour online learning session which equips them with basic water safety skills and foster a sense of responsibility and confidence to assist in water-related emergencies. On top of that, a 4-hours practical module that helps participants to recognise other swimmers who may need assistance in the water.

Course Aim:

  • Increase the wider community’s knowledge of water safety principles.
  • Enhance participants’ ability to identify potential hazards and risks in water bodies.
  • Equip participants with basic water safety skills to mitigate drowning risks.
  • Foster a sense of responsibility and confidence in assisting others in water-related emergencies.

This program is open to everyone—regardless of your swimming proficiency!

We encourage you to join us and make a difference.

Registration opens on 11 January 2025.
