NLA - How does the Bronze Medallion reduce guided learning hours for lifeguard qualifications?

The Bronze Medallion awards can be used as Recognised Prior Learning (RPL) towards the relevant vocational lifeguard qualifications therefore there is a requirement set for minimum guided learning hours. The minimum guided learning hours for each medallion is 18-hours and this will remove 7-hours from the relevant lifeguard qualification. More details are in the NLA Guidance Document.
