Stress Rescue Diver plus DAN Oxygen Provider - 6th, 7th & 13th,14th September

The SSI Rescue Diver course, includes a lot of practical rescue skills both at beach and into a boat. A thorough training in dive accident management is taught and because we also cover the practical use of oxygen and resuscitation, the course fits in with the DAN oxygen provider course.

Successful completion of both exams then, gets you 2 certificates for the price of one. We usually run one of these courses a year and the places are limited. This excellent course is a must for anyone who wants to be responsible around the diving community or if you are contemplating becoming a dive control specialist.

If you have already done one of these courses do not forget that to keep your DAN certificate valid, it has to be refreshed annually, just by completing the exam again. Let me know if this applies to you.
COST:- $350 including text book and oxygen mask.
