Rescue Diver Course
Learn Vital Rescue Skills
The Rescue Diver course is a crucial step in your diving education and is highly recommended to all divers. It's a transitional step in your diving education from just diving for fun to mastering some of the more technical aspects of Scuba Diving. Rescue training teaches diver safety, incident minimization and management and is one of the most challenging yet rewarding courses you can complete as a diver. The knowledge development component develops the principles and information you need for preventing and handling dive emergencies. The open water training allows you to apply the knowledge you have learned in a diving environment.
