In the Netherlands, anyone may offer swimming lessons and issue a swimming certificate. In fact, this is not regulated by law. Unfortunately, the different swimming diplomas do not always lead to the same National Swimming Safety Standard.
However, we have the National Swimming Diploma Licence and are independently assessed every year by the National Swimming Safety Council Foundation (formerly National Platform Swimming Pools | NRZ). So as a parent, you can be sure that the swimming lessons and swimming diploma meet the latest quality criteria and lay the foundations for a lifetime of swimming fun and safety.

As a parent/carer, this gives you four certainties:
Certified and qualified swimming teachers, so that your child is in safe hands and enjoys going to swimming lessons. For example, the swimming teachers work according to the Swimming Industry Code of Conduct, have a Certificate of Good Conduct (VOG) and continue their training.
Your child will receive the National Swimming Diplomas A, B and C. By obtaining the National Swimming Diploma C, your child meets the National Swimming Safety Standard. These official diplomas are recognised, for example, by fire brigades, police forces and sports training institutes for various professions.
The swimming lesson provider uses a clearly described swimming lesson method, so you can decide which provider suits your child best. During the swimming lessons, you as a parent will also be kept well informed of your child's progress.
