LEARN TO DIVE IN 3 EASY STEPS!
E-Learning
Start your Out of the Dust, SDI Open Water Scuba Diver course and master all the important academic information online or in person with your Instructor. You can complete this phase through self-study, at your own pace, in the convenience of your home or office. All e-Learning courses work on mobile and tablet devices too. Your Instructor is a phone call or email away if you have questions.
Pool Sessions
For entry-level certification courses (as well as some continuing-education classes), the next step will be to complete your in-water skill-development training. This takes place in a swimming pool or similar body of confined water, under the supervision of your SDI Instructor.
Open Water
The final step is to complete the required number of SDI open-water training dives under the supervision of your SDI Instructor. Here you will apply what you have learned during your academic and skill-development sessions, while learning practical lessons that can only be gained through real-world experience in open water.
