The first step in being prepared to handle an emergency is education. DAN courses teach you the first aid steps to care for an injured person and interact with medical professionals.
DAN courses are developed by a team of Medical and Educational Specialists.
Some courses are specifically developed for divers or life guards, while others such as the BLS and First Aid course are aimed at a wider audience.
We also developed specific programs for medical professionals to help them gain a better understanding of dive medicine and how to respond to a dive emergency.
Learn to provide aid in the case of sudden cardiac arrest, including the use of an Automated External Defibrillator (AED).
Learn to identify diving accidents, and to provide emergency first aid with the administration of oxygen.
Learn to recognize and avoid injuries caused by hazardous marine life, and to provide the necessary first aid.
The DAN Europe Education (EDU) team consists of a group of dedicated professionals who work together to continually improve and update training standards, create innovative courses, and provide an exceptional learning experience for all. Our team collaborates extensively with all other DAN divisions, in particular with the research team. The DAN Europe Training Committee consists of Medical Advisors and Regional Training Coordinators who actively represent DAN Education in their respective regions.
