It’s completely normal for scuba skills to feel a little rusty if you haven’t been diving for a while. Confidence can fade over time — but the SSI Scuba Skills Update is designed to get you back in the water feeling comfortable, capable, and ready to dive again.
This refresher program gives you the opportunity to review and practice the key skills you learned during your Open Water Diver training, all under the guidance of an experienced SSI Professional. In a relaxed and supportive environment, you’ll revisit essential techniques such as buoyancy control, regulator recovery, mask clearing, and general dive safety procedures.
It’s the perfect option to take before a dive holiday, allowing you to rebuild confidence before heading out on fun dives. Instead of worrying about your abilities, you’ll be able to fully relax and focus on enjoying the experience — and the incredible marine life around you.
The Scuba Skills Update is also ideal for students who have not yet completed their Open Water certification. If you’re a non-certified diver preparing for your open water training dives, this session provides valuable extra practice to help you feel fully prepared.
With no strict course duration, the refresher is completely flexible. You can spend as much time as needed focusing on the skills you want to improve, ensuring you return to diving feeling safe, confident, and in control.
Whether you're getting back into diving after a break or preparing to complete your certification, this program is the easiest way to refresh your skills and enjoy your next dive with confidence.
