Swim England Qualifications have launched their SEQ Level 3 Swim Coordinator qualification which is an industry first and been produced collaboratively with the swimming sector. It has been designed to develop leadership skills, support business needs, improve the customer experience and maximise pool performance.
The programme is relevant to the current operating environment and gets the candidates to utilise working case studies from their organisation, creating solutions to implement immediately. This allows the course to adapt to the needs of the industry, and provide a return on investment before the coordinators have even completed their qualification.
Fiona Grant, Swim England Qualifications Quality Assurance Manager, said:
“We’ve listened closely to the sector and we’re delighted to be meeting their needs by becoming the first in the industry to launch this type of qualification.
