NRPA knows how important a comprehensive aquatics program is to your community and has heard your financial challenges delivering these programs. We listened and acted.

We encourage you to compare the new partnership programs below. We want to give you more choices and more flexibility; while still delivering access to state-of-the-art training courses and cutting-edge resources and tools. We’re confident that members will see the benefit of these competitive prices and savings.

American Red Cross

The American Red Cross provides relief to victims of disaster and help people prevent, prepare for, and respond to emergencies.  

On behalf of members, NRPA approached the Red Cross and advocated for a reduced pricing module that is beneficial universally for the field and aquatics providers. Due to our efforts, and additional considerations by the Red Cross, NRPA members will receive a 10 percent discount on all aquatic printed materials and instructional DVDs.  New for 2013, NRPA members can take advantage of and enroll in the 2013 Learn-to-Swim pricing structure that consists of annual fee per facility, based on projected 2013 swim lesson enrollees at each facility.  No additional student learning fees will be assessed for Learn-to-Swim partipants for facilities that have completed the registration for 2013 Learn-to-Swim package.  Learn-to-Swim Completion Cards are provided for the maximum number of enrollees within each tier.

Starfish Aquatic Institute (SAI)

SAI’s mission is to reduce drowning and save lives by providing reputable and responsive aquatic safety training programs and services delivered to the public through a network of friendly, knowledgeable aquatic professionals who serve as independent authorized training providers.  

In addition, NRPA coordinated with SAI so members would have the option of signing up for their Starguard Lifeguard Training Program and Starfish Swimming Instruction Program together to reap a 20 percent discount on their all-inclusive start-up and training package. SAI also offers the option to sign up for each program individually for 15 and 10 percent discount respectively. NRPA members who are existing authorized providers of SAI programs will receive a 20 percent discount on selected program-related products offered throughout the year.
