Learn to respond calmly in an emergency with the SSI React Right course in Hikkaduwa, a dry, non-diving programme open to everyone. In a single day you build CPR, first aid, AED and oxygen-provider skills through practical, scenario-based training, gaining the emergency-care foundation required for SSI rescue and professional ratings. It is a natural first step before rescue and leadership training on Sri Lanka's south coast.
SSI React Right combines CPR, first aid, AED and emergency-oxygen provision into one programme that satisfies the emergency-care prerequisite for SSI Diver Stress & Rescue and professional ratings. The certification is logged digitally in the SSI app and is usually valid for two years.
React Right runs entirely on land at the dive centre in Hikkaduwa, with no in-water component. It complements reef and rescue training through the calm November-to-April south-coast season.
