Who is OLAV and What’s Next?
Developing and Sustaining Education Programs
“ Anticipate a bumpy ride, and expect that significant psychological calming is going to be needed at times.” Bob Whipple, CEO of Leadergrow
Current “Presenter Certification” Program
“Certification” Industry Standards
New regulations are making it too costly and labor intensive for our
modest resources
Materials Materials currently developed for Presenters are only seen by those
attending a presentation
Current Operation Lifesaver Presenters
OLI Presenters… Can continue to give traditional presentations using the current Presenter’s Guide until December 31, 2014
Can continue to use current and approved OLI charts/visuals and PowerPoint from the current Presenter’s Guides
Are encouraged to become Operation Lifesaver Authorized Volunteers so they can also use new materials

Presenter Addresses an audience that is mostly passive Possesses all of the content Credibility is derived from Presenter Is accountable for the learning
Difference Between a Presenter and an OLAV

In response to the observation that volunteers are too often seen as amateurs: “Just
remember: Noah’s Ark was built by amateurs. The Titanic was built by professionals.”
