PADI ReActivate/Refresher

PADI® ReActivate™ Scuba Refresher is the engaging and efficient way to update your dive knowledge and restore your scuba skills. Whether you are returning to diving after a short break or several years, this program lets you quickly review what you remember while giving extra attention to topics that may need a refresher.

To earn a “ReActivated” certification card, you will complete an in-water skills session with a PADI Professional, where you will practice essential techniques such as assembling your scuba unit, managing common issues, and performing basic skills with confidence.

Your PADI certification never expires, but if you have not been diving for a while, refreshing your skills can help you feel more prepared and safe. For a quick review, complete the online eLearning portion. If you want to rebuild your comfort in the water, combine it with in-water training. Dive centers also value seeing a recent ReActivated date on your certification card, as it shows you are ready for your next underwater adventure.
