The CSA Competency Standard (CSA Z275.4) states that the competencies involved in diving can become deficient if related skills are not practiced and related knowledge is not applied regularly. For this reason, proof of competency and re-certification (re-qualification) shall be required periodically. The re-qualification period shall be not more than five years.

As part of its commitment to achieving world’s best practice, the DCBC has adopted a limited certification period of five (5) years so that diver and supervisor competency levels are reviewed regularly. The purpose of renewing is to ensure divers and diving supervisors are current in their skills and abilities, and to help ensure the safety of the teams they are working in.

Newly graduated divers are certified for two years only, and pay only half of the normal fee. The reason for the two year restriction is that if a graduate does not use the skills and knowledge he developed in school, for a period of two years immediately following graduation (s)he will lose them.
