However, in the field of commercial diving, despite the broad range of knowledge required, the effectiveness of license renewal and continuing education systems has not been sufficiently examined. This study evaluated the short-term effects of a video-based educational intervention on OSH knowledge and learning motivation among commercial divers and examined its usefulness as a CE tool.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      A web-based quasi-experimental single-group pre\u2013post intervention study was conducted between November 2024 and August 2025 with the cooperation of the Japan Dive Association. The target population comprised approximately 3,000 commercial divers from 160 corporate member companies. The intervention included a baseline questionnaire, a 13-item OSH knowledge test, an educational video, a post-test, and a final questionnaire. Eighty-one valid responses were analyzed using a paired t-test, with significance set at\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u202f&amp;lt;\u202f0.05.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      The mean correct response rate increased significantly from 46.6 to 66.3% after the intervention (\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u202f&amp;lt;\u202f0.05).
