Pre-requisites for Rescue Diver Course
With the completion of the Rescue Diver Course, the diver
moves beyond a recreational level by achieving a professional
standard of knowledge of the "science" aspect
of diving and rescue/emergency techniques. The Rescue
course gives the student a better appreciation and understanding
of the importance of this training relevant to diver safety
and incident minimization and management.
Pre-requisites for this course are:
- PADI Advanced Open water
certificate or equivalent rating with another dive training
agency and;
- a current 1st Aid certificate.
The course
comprises 1 day of pool and classroom training followed
by a 3 day 2 night liveaboard trip where you will get
up to 11 dives on a variety of spectacular outer reef locations.
These dives consist of a combination of training and
recreational dives.
