The in-water skills in this program will include: in-water assists, transports,
surface rescues from depth involving both boat and shore based skin and scuba divers; and will
be presented and tested in both the pool and ocean. The course meets the prerequisite rescue
training for skin diving instructor, Assistant Instructor, Divemaster, and Instructor
certifications. Certified Rescue Divers may use this certification as a prerequisite for the
training Assistant.
Note: Adult CPR training (approximately four hours) meets the requirement for scuba rescue
diver certification. However, additional CPR training that includes two person CPR and the use
of rescue breathing barrier devices, e.g. pocket mask, face shield, is required to meet the
requirements for leadership certification.
