Your PADI certification never expires; but if you haven't been diving in a while, it's better to be over-prepared than risk a problem because you forget something important. For just a knowledge review, complete eLearning. To get comfortable in the water again, also schedule time with dive professional.
ReActivate is the engaging, efficient way to refresh your dive knowledge and scuba skills. Move quickly through topics you know well, dive deeper on topics where your knowledge may have lapsed.
It's easy to fit a scuba refresher program into your busy schedule. Using a computer or mobile device, watch videos of how to perform basic scuba skills and review dive planning and safety procedures - whenever, wherever it's convenient for you.
The ReActivate program is particularly beneficial if you:

After you complete the knowledge assessments, you can choose whether you feel comfortable to get back in the water already, or whether you would like to do a "Scuba Refresher" with a dive professional.

Sometimes this will be run alongside relevant courses or activities already on our schedule, and other times it may need to be privately scheduled - we will discuss all the options with you when you contact us.
