In recognition of the training that Level 2 Teachers have undertaken to
gain their qualification and to make it easier for them to obtain a Swim
Ireland Licence, all new Level 2 Teachers and Coaches (qualifications
gained from 1st January 2012) will be allowed a 12 month period of grace
(from the achievement date of the qualification as indicated on the
certificate) in which to apply for their Licence without having to attend the
normally required Continuous Professional Development (CPD)
Seminars.

This means that as a new Level 2 Teacher or Coach the required criterion
is:

• A signed Teacher/Coach Code of Conduct
• Provide evidence of practical Teaching/Coaching experience
• A passport sized ID photograph
• Completed Associate Membership and licensing application forms

Any Level 2 Teachers or Coaches applying for their licence after the 12
month period following their course will be required to apply via the
normal route (attending CPD seminars).
