HSE Media Diving Pre-Qualifications

To become an HSE Media Diver you first need to undertake the following qualifications:

  • Open Water – online theory, c.5 hours in the pool on a weekend, and 2 days at our lake near Redhill.
  • Advanced Open Water – online theory + 2 days in open water
  • Rescue Diver – online theory (allow 10-12 hours) and 2 days practical in our Redhill lake
  • EFR First Aid at work – We only teach the standard one day course so you are better doing this with St Johns Ambulance.
  • O2 Specialist – a few hours of online theory and the practical can be combined with the Rescue Diver course, or you can come into the office.
  • Dry suit – 1 day or combine with Advanced weekend

To gain some experience to make you a safer and more experienced diver we also include 4 days (8 dives) of “fun diving at the lake”. This includes equipment hire but not entry fees or air fills.
