Bronze Medallion (Canada)
The Bronze Medallion is the second step towards the lifeguarding certification in Canada. The award is part of the Lifesaving Society's Bronze series of awards. It teaches an understanding of the lifesaving principles embodied in the four components of water rescue education: judgment, knowledge, skill, and fitness. It is the prerequisite for Bronze Cross; Standard First Aid with CPR-C and 15 years of age are the prerequisites for National Lifeguard Service. The Bronze Medallion endurance swim requirement is 400 meters (440 yd) in 12 minutes using any combination of strokes.
