Many of you may be wondering what we mean when we talk about an SSI Scuba Diving Course. Terminology in a dive center for an initial diving course is Open Water Diver so when you hear someone discuss their Open Water classes they are talking about their Scuba Diving Class. To become a certified Scuba Diver this is the class you want to sign up for.
An Open Water Diver course consists of:
Academics - You completed online, these can also be done in a classroom, if you prefer.
Pool Training and Open Water Sessions - Going out in the actual open water like in a lake or the ocean, it´s your choice.
The SSI Dive Center you choose will have a variety of class times and course fees available for you to choose from. You can pick what best fits both your time and financial situation.
