If you have completed the PADI advanced diver course, why not gain the experience and benefits of a 'Rescue Diver' program? If you are looking to expand your knowledge beyond the recreational level or take up the Divemaster course, this flexible 3-day course (2-3 hours per day) is the right one for you. It is designed to develop the necessary knowledge and skills to effectively perform rescue dives, manage diving accident situations and render proper first aid - all as per international PADI standards.

This course consists of 2 parts:

(i) Theory part (e-learning at home):
The first part of the course is the theory which is a home study course done via e-Learning. About six hours are required and you can complete the theory online in the comfort of your own home before you arrive to dive.

(ii) Practical diving training (at different locations):
The second part of the course is entirely performance-based training where you get hands-on experience and practice in an open water environment. Your instructor will teach you self-rescuing skills, search patterns, in-water rescue breaths and more. Once you master the skills individually, you will learn how to deal with rescue scenarios in realistic open water situations. For this, your instructor will set up two simulated dive emergencies, which you will then manage from start to finish. Needless to say, you will need to employ the skills acquired during your theory and practice in order to ensure everyone survives. What you will learn:

• How to manage an emergency
• How to rescue yourself
• How to recognize and manage stress in other divers
• How to rescue panicked and unresponsive diver
