Cours FQAS

In Quebec, the practice of recreational scuba diving is governed by the Regulation respecting recreational scuba diving qualifications authorized by the Act respecting safety in sports (R.S.Q., c. S-3.1, c. V.2). Under the Act (c. V.2, ss. 46.17 and 46.18), a person who engages in or teaches recreational scuba diving, other than in a qualifying course or examination, must hold a certificate of qualification in scuba diving or in the teaching of diving. The Regulation Respecting Recreational Underwater Diving Qualifications (R.S.Q., c. S-3.1, r. 8) specifies the conditions under which the holder of a certificate of qualification may dive or teach according to his level of qualification. The levels of qualification are diver - class A, B, C and D and instructor - class A, B and C. The Diver - Class D level allows you to perform certain duties in support of the instructor. For details of the levels and their requirements, see the Regulation. For tourists or people certified outside Quebec, a temporary equivalence certificate can be issued under certain conditions.
