Our 5 Step Training Process




Step 1 - Registration
Sign up online or in store for the course, pick the sessions you want, then come to the dive center. Our staff will take the time to fit you to the equipment you need, talk through the different options on owning equipment vs renting equipment, complete the required paperwork for the agencies and pool, assign your E-Learning and answer any questions you may have for the upcoming class.
Step 2 - Pool Sessions
Our course requires 4 pool sessions to complete. Each class builds on the class before it, so it is important that you attend the classes in order. In the pool you will learn the basics of the equipment and how to utilize it. You will be introduced to the physics of breathing underwater, how to dive safely, and how to address certain issues that may arise.
Step 3 - Quarry Sessions
Over 2 days and 4 dives you will be able to apply all of the information that you have learned in your E-Learning, and all the skills you have practiced in the pool in a quarry dive, conveniently located about 45 minutes north of the Dive Center. Again each dive will build on the one prior to it, so it is important that you attend all 4 dives.
Step 4 - Diver Certification
By now you have completed all of the requirements to become a certified diver! We review a few final documents and issue you your certification! This step is traditionally completed at the dive center after your final day of diving. We review some issues you may have had with E-Learning, answer any questions you may have about the class, and button everything up so you can start diving on your own!
Course Components
Our course utilizes E-learning to teach the "Classroom" portion of the certification. In some very rare cases our students have already purchased E-Learning elsewhere.
Do you need an E-Learning code for your Online Lecture?
Do you plan on completing your Open water Dives with us?
Some people elect to do their Open Water Dives elsewhere. We recommend you finish the course with us, however if you choose to take a referral, we can get you the paperwork required.

Personal Rentals
Your Personal Equipment includes your Mask, Snorkel, Boots, and Fins. Not sure what to choose? Click here.
How would you like us to calculate your Personal Rentals?
If you plan on purchasing your equipment from us, we will collect a deposit for the equipment now. When you come into the shop you will be able to choose your own mask, and upgrade as needed.
Most people don't, but if you already have some scuba equipment we will deduct those rental costs from our program as well. Interested in buying core equipment? Even if you book a rental today, you will only ever pay for what you use! If you say you want to rent regs, but then buy one - we will credit you back the rentals on the purchase of that reg!
Do you already have any core scuba equipment?
This form can not yet calculate changes to core rentals - please call us at 724-687-0005 and we will be happy to assist.
