Diver certification
Diver certification is an official recognition that someone has completed training to safely explore underwater environments using scuba gear. It confirms the diver has learned essential skills such as breathing underwater, equalizing ear pressure, and managing equipment, as well as understanding safety procedures. Certification levels vary, with basic open water certifying someone to dive to a certain depth, while advanced certifications allow for deeper or specialized diving. This accreditation ensures divers are knowledgeable and prepared to handle common underwater situations, promoting safety and confidence during their explorations.
