More than 1,000 Swim England (SEQ) courses in 2019

It’s been a fantastic year for swimming teacher training and development, with more than 1,000 Swim England Qualifications (SEQ) courses taking place!

In total, more than 10,000 learners have gained SEQ qualifications during a busy year for the industry.

Many of those learners have started their swim teaching journey with the SEQ Level 1 Swimming Assistant (Teaching) qualification.

Taking the plunge with this practical, entry level course provides the skills required to assist a qualified swimming teacher.

It also serves as the perfect stepping stone in becoming a qualified swim teacher through the SEQ Level 2 Teaching Swimming course.

Quality is at the heart of Swim England’s qualifications. The Level 2 is endorsed by the CIMSPA Swimming Teacher Standard while learners benefit from the support, expertise and standing of the sport’s National Governing Body.

Launched this year, the Level 2 Teaching Swimming to Babies & Toddlers and Level 2 Coaching Open Water Swimming qualifications have proved to be popular additions.

Swim England qualifications are delivered at more than 320 locations by a network of Approved Training Centres, providing an unrivalled coverage of England and Wales.

Head of Swim England Qualifications, Simon Stevens, remarked: “What a fantastic 2019 it’s been for the swim teaching industry, with so many courses available.

“Providing those opportunities at convenient locations has helped thousands of swimming teachers and assistants to gain qualifications, change their careers and to progress.

“Thank you to our network of high-quality Approved Training Centres. They deserve a huge pat on the back for delivering so many high quality and enjoyable courses.”
