Access to BNSSA training can be complex, both from a technical standpoint (e.g., knowing how to swim) and in terms of the personal investment required in time and energy (accelerated training). As the BNSSA is a prerequisite for the BPJEPSAAN, we hope that some candidates will continue their training to obtain the MNS qualification.
We decided to create the Best Practices sheets* after observing a lack of and need for sharing among local authorities regarding swimming pools.
