RSTC Coordinator P.O. Box 11083 Jacksonville, FL 32239 USA Recreational Scuba Training Council (RSTC) Minimum Course Content for Supervised Diver Certifi cation 1. Scope and Purpose This standard provides minimum course content requirements for instruction leading to super- vised diver certifi cation in recreational diving with scuba (self-contained underwater breathing appa- ratus). The intent of the standard is to prepare a non diver to the point that he can enjoy scuba diving in open water under controlled conditions—that is, under the supervision of a diving professional (instructor or certifi ed assistant – see defi nitions) and to a limited depth. These requirements do not defi ne full, autonomous certifi cation and should not be confused with Open Water Scuba Certifi cation. (See Recreational Scuba Training Council Minimum Course Content for Open Water Scuba Certifi ca- tion.) The Supervised Diver Certifi cation Standards are a subset of the Open Water Scuba Certifi cation standards. Moreover, as part of the supervised diver course content, supervised divers are informed of the limitations of the certifi cation and urged to continue their training to obtain open water diver certifi - cation. Within the scope of supervised diver training, the requirements of this standard are meant to be com- prehensive, but general in nature. That is, the standard presents all the subject areas essential for su- pervised diver certifi cation, but it does not give a detailed listing of the skills and information encom- passed by each area.

    EFFECTIVE 1 October 2004 MINIMUM COURSE CONTENT FOR Open Water Diver Certification As Approved By wrstc.com 1 ©2004, Recreational Scuba Training Council, Inc. (RSTC) Recreational Scuba Training Council, Inc. P.O. Box 11083 Jacksonville, FL 32239 USA 2 Effective 1 October 2004 Recreational Scuba Training Council (RSTC) Minimum Course Content for Open Water Scuba Certification 1. Scope and Purpose This standard provides minimum course content requirements for instruction leading to open water certification in recreational diving with scuba (self-contained underwater breathing apparatus). However, these requirements should under no conditions be considered to define a level of optimum training in the use of scuba. Instructional programs that extend beyond these requirements should, in fact, be encouraged. Some states, provinces or countries may have additional regulations for entry-level scuba training. Instructors should be aware of requirements in their local areas and adhere to the additional protocols when conducting training. The requirements of this standard are meant to be comprehensive, but general in nature. That is, the standard presents all the subject areas essential for open water scuba certification, but it does not give a detailed listing of the skills and information encompassed by each area. For example, these minimum specifications require that an open water certification course must cover the physical description, operating principles, and maintenance of at least the items of equipment listed in 4.2. Those items are simply listed in this standard; training organizations shall publish detailed course outlines that meet this standard, which would include specific techniques for the use and maintenance of each item.
