CPR and first aid are key skills that are important to everyone, not just scuba divers. Emergency First Response training focuses on building confidence in potential rescuers and increases their willingness to respond when faced with a medical emergency. The course id prerequisite for the Rescue Course and all professional dive courses.
The Emergency First Responder training in form of the EFR course teaches you medical emergency response skills. It prepares you for assisting in medical emergencies. It is a necessary certificate that you need before starting a Rescue Diver course or any of the professional diver courses such as the Dive Master Course.
The course takes one full day and it focusses on building confidence and increases willingness to respond when faced with a medical emergency without becoming a medical emergency yourself.

The EFR course is the prerequisite for the Rescue Course on Gili Meno and all professional courses such as the Divemaster Course. It is a great but dry course. If you’d like to get your feet wet, you can also look into the following fun specialities:
Please note, the waters around the Gili Islands have been declared a Marine Park. Therefore a one time Marine Park fee of 100.000 IDR has to be paid by all diving and snorkel tour participants. This fee is NOT included in our prices and has to be paid in cash at our dive center on Gili Meno.
If you are only going to do the EFR course this fee is not applicable since you won’t be diving during this course.
Many emergency first response (EFR) courses meet the CPR and first aid training requirements for diving courses. If you have completed an EFR course in your home country in the last two years, you probably won’t have to do it again.
If you feel your knowledge is rusty even though your certificate is still valid, we do recommend a refresher.
Please note, we and all other Gili Meno establishments charge a 3% credit card surcharge on all credit card transaction. The 3 % surcharge does not apply to online bookings.
The EFR course is a dry course so chances that you wont be able to do it are small.
In the (hopefully unlikely) event that you can’t start the course as planned, you will get of course more time to make it to the island and if even that isn’t going to happen, you will get all your money back minus the arising expenses. Please note, the e-learning is the most expensive part of the course and the e-learning is yours after we have assigned it to you. This and potential transaction charges are non refundable.

A First Aid and CPR certificate in a diving context is good for two years (24 months) and should then be updated.
The two major training agencies in the world are PADI and SS (and CMAS if you are looking at diving from a French or German perspective). But is there a big difference or is one better than the other?
Instructors of all agencies will teach you how to be a skilled diver, as there is a certain skill set that every diver needs to have. Therefore, all diving agencies follow a legal framework laid down by the World Recreational Scuba Diving Council. The training agencies also accept each other; hence you could do one course with the one and other courses with another agency.
We love what we do and we do it well! We have been in the game for over 10 years as Divine Divers on Gili Meno. Generally, our main differentiator is our personal approach – and of course our location at the most perfect sunset point on the island. What better way is there to end the perfect diving day where the sky meets the ocean. Apart from that our groups are small and our instructors hand chosen for their personality and excellent teaching records. We have great and up to date training facilities and safety is our primary concern; our equipment is in excellent order and of course regularly maintained. We are committed to offering first-class service and high-quality dive courses. We are offering both PADI and SSI courses and we are collaborating with instructor development centers for both agencies in case you fall in love with diving and the island and would like to just stay and live here. You would not be the first one ?.
