News from STA
Welcome to STA, home to the world's largest swim teaching & lifesaving organisation
The Swimming Teachers' Association (STA) is a registered charity founded in 1932; with the charitable objective of...
"the preservation of human life by the teaching
of swimming, lifesaving and survival techniques."
STA receives no Government funding or support, yet has experienced incredible success over the last few years. Unlike other professional bodies who are seeing declining memberships, STA is achieving
significant growth; with over 5,000 members to date.
This is all in addition to being the only awarding body that has QCA approval for its National Rescue Standard (NaRS) Lifeguarding / Lifesaving and First Aid Awards, Swimming Teaching Certificates and
Pool Plant programmes; this clearly demonstrates the STA’s commitment to providing nationally acknowledged vocational awards that address the government’s skills strategy agenda.more »
