PADI Rescue Diver

The PADI Rescue Diver course is an important and crucial step to expanding your knowledge and experience beyond a purely recreational level. Rescue divers learn to look beyond themselves to consider the safety and well being of others. This is why the PADI Rescue Diver rating is a prerequisite for all PADI leadership training (Divemaster, Assistant Instructor and Open Water Scuba Instructor). This course will ready you to anticipate and help prevent problems and, if necessary, manage dive emergencies using a variety of techniques. The course consists of 5 Academic sessions and 5 Open Water sessions comprising of 12 rescue exercises and the completion of 5 correlating knowledge reviews. In addition you have to complete a short multiple-choice Final Exam. On successful completion of the course you'll be awarded the PADI Rescue Diver certification card, recognised worldwide.
