    Hey guys, just wondering if there is a difference between the Irish Water Safety and the National Pool Lifeguard Qualifications as there is a substantial price difference (about 70euro) between them. Also the NPLQ takes an extra day to complete. Planning to work as a lifeguard over the Summer and was wondering which was better. Also does either qualify you to teach swimming?

    Thanks.

    Don't think there is much of a difference maybe check with local pools to see if they accept both.

    Swim coaching is a separate course
