Water Certification for Adult Leaders Online Here is the link for Safety Afloat/Safe Swim Defense on-line. Great web app, takes 15 minutes for each, and prints out a nice little certificate/card at the end. Both courses should be taken by all adult leaders for water trips (canoe, rafting, kayak, swim, etc.)
