A rescue course will serve you well.
However. you need to dive more. The knowledge gained by taking a rescue course is important for your skill set. Anything can happen on a dive. With lesser experienced divers and even with the more seasoned ones....Knowing what to do in any given situation is essential to any skill set.
Maintaining those skills is even more important. If you never practiced those learned skills, they will only be a thought. no more no less. we forget by not doing.
The next step is gear. get your gear. As everyone will state...you dive more when you have your own stuff.
If money is an issue. In most cases it is. Then go for your gear first. Then find yourself a mentor. A diver with many many dives under there belt. Not resort divers that dive once in a blue vacation but have been diving that way for several years. I mean a seasoned diver that dives 100-300 dives a year in multiple conditions...nothing like that kind of dive experience to follow in there fins....
Then when time comes..hit the rescue course.
