The “I Got This” Course

In Diver Stress & Rescue, you learn that stress is often the major cause of diving accidents and diver rescue situations. Properly dealing with stressed and injured divers is a major part of the dive professional’s responsibility. This program teaches you the skills and knowledge to recognize signs of stress, prevent accidents, and properly deal with emergency dive situations. This is one of the most physically demanding courses, but also one of the most important and most rewarding!

This course focuses on accident prevention and response. Learn about the accident chain and how to stop accidents before they happen. You also learn in-water rescues, and how to deal with panicked and unresponsive divers.

How It Works

This Diver Stress and Rescue course starts with online e-Learning. The water training is done in three sessions, over three days.

Dive Day One
- a confined water session in a shallow lagoon, where you will learn rescue skills.
Dive Day Two
- a fun open water dive, get in the ocean, polish those dive skills
- an open water dive day where we put those skills to the test, dealing with actual rescue scenarios in the ocean.
Dive Day Three
- two open water dives dealing with increasingly difficult scenarios

These days do not need to be consecutive, so if you have other activities planned, we can work around that.

What To Bring

All you need is a swimsuit for the first day: all of the dive gear is included!

- If you bring a change of clothes for after class, there are beach showers and restrooms.
If you already own personal gear, like mask, snorkels, or fins, bring them. You’ll be more comfortable in your own gear.
You can bring a towel, sunglasses & maybe a hat for the boat trips (we have a dry storage area).
We provide drinking water, fresh pineapple & snacks, but you can also bring your own.
