The SwimSafer program is transitioning to a centralized testing system by the second quarter of 2025. During
this interim phase, from July 1, 2024, until full implementation, there are a few important updates.
Students registering for the SwimSafer test must now complete the theory test before the practical test to receive their certificates. Coaches will provide instructions on when to take the theory test.
E-certificates will be directly accessible to students and parents via the FileSG portal, rather than through coaches or ActiveSG accounts.
