The PADI Online Open Water Diver Course is a beginner SCUBA course which is great for those wanting to take their first breath underwater, while learning what they need to know to become a certified SCUBA diver in the comfort of their own home and at their own pace. In fact this portion of the course can be completed anywhere you have internet access. When signing up for your eLearning course, be sure to select ScubaTech PADI #1670 as your Pool and Open Water training facility.
When you have completed or near completion of the online portion of the course, call or email us to schedule your Pool and Open Water training dives. This is when you meet your instructor and the real fun begins. Your instructor will review the academic portion of your course and complete your final exam. Then it’s off for two pool sessions where you learn hands on equipment setup, adjustment and use. This will prepare you for a smooth transition into the open water world.
When you have completed your pool training you will be ready for your four open water certification dives that will be conducted over the next two days. Here you simply repeat all the skills you learned during your pool training in the open water under the supervision of your instructor. Upon completion of your training dives you will be certified as an Open Water Diver.
Included in the cost of the course are the pool training sessions, boat dives, registration fees, and all SCUBA equipment needed for your training dives. If you decide to dive with us again after your certification, we highly recommend hiring a divemaster as you will be diving on new and unfamiliar sites.
