AUSTSWIM hosts and supports aquatic education seminars, industry forums and conferences across Australia, in addition to the biannual National or International Aquatic Conference. These conferences provide an opportunity for industry associates to enhance their skills and knowledge through a select range of professional development sessions presented by highly respected speakers.
Attending conferences, summits, workshops and seminars is one of the most effective ways to advance your aquatic career. AUSTSWIM events offer an opportunity to develop new professional relationships, make new friends, gain knowledge and become more successful in your career.
There are a number of benefits to attending our conferences and workshops, including:
Each year AUSTSWIM presents a series of conferences across Australia and New Zealand, focusing on innovative and up-to-date initiatives, including:
Our theme for this conference series is ‘Soak It Up’, providing delegates with relevant and up-to-date information delivered by outstanding presenters in an interactive manner.

Do you want to recognise an outstanding teacher, swim school, presenter, program or organisation in your state, territory or country? You can celebrate their achievements by nominating them for an AUSTSWIM Award! The AUSTSWIM Awards acknowledge individuals, swim schools and organisations for their contribution to aquatic education and water safety through leadership, innovation and community spirit – helping students and their community to be safer in, on and around water.
Preparing a nomination is an opportunity to reflect on an individual or organisation’s achievements and praise those who go above and beyond for students and their community every day.
Nominating for an AUSTSWIM Award is a massive boost for individuals and organisations. Previous award nominators report an increase in staff morale, better staff retention and recruitment, increased participation and revenue, in addition to stronger community engagement and support.
Nominations have now closed for the 2021/2022 awards. Thank you to all who took the time to nominate.
AUSTSWIM Award recipients are recognised by colleagues and communities as the best in the state/territory in their category.
Previous recipients have benefited from obtaining professional learning in areas of their choice, unique career opportunities and accelerated career progression.
These recipients are now inspiring their own students, colleagues, and communities – sharing their motivation and passion while guiding and assisting students and colleagues to achieve their best.
Swim school recipients benefit with opportunities to build relationships with teachers, aquatic industry leaders and community.
Help make a difference by nominating an outstanding teacher, presenter, swim centre, program or organisation in this year's AUSTSWIM Awards.
Anyone can nominate! Swim schools, teachers, colleagues, presenters, assessors, parents, course candidates, community organisations, members of the public and family or friends can all nominate.
You can even self-nominate.
We encourage you to acknowledge hard work, commitment and passion by submitting a nomination.
The AUSTSWIM Awards are open to teachers, presenters, swim centres and other organisations who meet the criteria for individual award categories. Previous nominees, as well as recipients from the previous year are not eligible to nominate.
