Overview
EN ISO 24804:2022/A11:2024 is the latest amendment to the European standard that defines requirements for rebreather diver training programmes focused on no-decompression diving. Published by CEN (the European Committee for Standardization) in July 2024, this standard outlines the competencies necessary for recreational divers to safely conduct rebreather dives using nitrox breathing gas to a maximum depth of 30 meters without mandatory decompression stops. It complements the general recreational diving service requirements detailed in ISO 24803 and provides specific evaluation criteria to ensure consistent and high-quality training delivery.
Key Topics
Rebreather Diver Training Requirements
Sets out mandatory competencies for divers using rebreather systems, emphasizing safe operation during no-decompression dives.No-Decompression Diving with Nitrox
Focuses on dives not requiring decompression stops, limiting operations to a maximum depth of 30 meters to enhance safety and accessibility.Competency Evaluation Criteria
Specifies how diver skills and knowledge must be assessed to confirm proficiency in rebreather diving techniques.Training Programme Conditions
Details the environmental, instructional, and administrative conditions under which training must be delivered to meet international and European standards.Alignment with ISO 24803
Builds upon the foundational recreational diving services framework to provide specialized guidance for rebreather diver education.National Regulatory Considerations
Includes provisions on how national regulations, such as those in France, may influence the applicability of certain requirements.
