“Rescue” is the first program you take as a diver where the emphasis isn’t mainly on your diving skills. The program teaches you how to handle common (and some not so common) issues that can happen while diving and focuses on problem solving skills. Through this program you will become a more confident diver and have a whole new skill set that makes you an invaluable buddy!  The program consists of Self-study, Classroom (as necessary), Pool Training, and Open Water Dives...

CPR and First Aid programs that teach lifesaving skills. It can be broken into smaller programs to meet anyone's needs!
