A shocking statistic about swim instructors is that the United States is expected to have a shortage of 200,000 swim instructors by 2025.
This shortage is due to several factors, including the rising popularity of swimming as a recreational activity, the aging population, and the increasing number of
children who need to learn how to swim.
The shortage of swim instructors is having a number of negative consequences, including:
- Long waiting lists for swim lessons. Many swim schools have long waiting lists for classes, and many schools have even had to turn away
students.
- Higher prices for swim lessons. The increased demand for swim lessons has led to higher prices.
- Lack of access to swim lessons. Some children, especially those in low-income families, cannot afford swim lessons.
The need for swim instructors is a serious problem, and it is essential to find solutions.
Some possible solutions include:
- Increase the number of swim instructor training programs. There is a high demand for swim instructors; therefore, increasing the number of swim instructor training programs is necessary.
- Increase the pay for swim instructors. To attract and keep qualified swim instructors, it is necessary to raise their pay.
