Refresher Scuba

About this course

This continuing education course is a non-certification course which offers supervised refresher experience at the Scuba Diver level for divers who need to re-establish proficiency owing to diving inactivity in light of intended dive trips or other factors. Divers who have completed the Refresher Scuba course may use the documentation to assist dive guides, Divemasters, resort owners, and others in evaluating the diver’s training level and readiness to participate in specific diving activities.

Prerequisite

• Age. Minimum is 15 years by the water phase of the course. (Junior certification for ages 10-14 years is allowed. See “Policies Applying to All Courses: Age, Junior Certification.”)
• Certification/Experience/Knowledge. Certification as a NAUI Scuba Diver or the equivalent is required. The instructor is to ensure adequate student knowledge and capability before any open water training and shall use skill or other evaluations to do so. For participants with no diving activity during the 12-month period preceding the Refresher Scuba course, water skill evaluation and necessary refresher training in confined water is required before open water activity is permitted.
