PADI Open Water Diver Course online.
What does it cover?
The PADI Open Water Diver course
is, by far, the world's most popular scuba certification course. Millions of
people have started diving as certified PADI Open Water Divers. Learning to
scuba dive requires both knowledge development (facts, principles, concepts) and
motor procedures (skills, techniques, methods). The PADI Open Water Diver Course
online provides the knowledge development portion you need. You develop the
remaining skills by actually diving with a PADI Instructor at your local PADI
Dive Center or Resort.
How does it work?
After
enrolling, PADI's eLearning system presents you with interactive presentations
that include videos, audio, graphics and reading. Short quizzes let you gauge
your progress, and review and correct anything you might happen to miss. This
lets you move through the program efficiently and at your own pace.
What does it cost?
The PADI Open Water Diver Course
online is $120 (US) nonrefundable. The fee covers your knowledge development
training and gives you unlimited access to an electronic version of the PADI
Open Water Diver Manual (course textbook). Your PADI Dive Center or Resort will
charge an additional fee for the in water portion of your certification. You
will also need to purchase a mask, snorkel, pair of fins, and other personal
dive equipment. Your PADI Dive Center or Resort will guide you through this
process and may suggest additional equipment along with the required purchase of
a Recreational Dive Planner (Table or eRDP version) and a log book.
How long do you have to complete the eLearning course?
The eLearning course will be available for one year from the time of course
registration.

*
Great, fast, got me ready for in water training! * Amazing. Loved the
flexibility of learning at my own pace. Great videos. * Excellent material.
Never thought it would be such a convenient way of learning. * Great! I am
excited to continue to Dive Master! * I am very pleased to have done this
online...I sometimes feel intimidated with the presence of others in a
course...This way I could answer the questions at my relaxed leisure. *
Having this course available was a great help as I saved at least a day of
vacation by doing it ahead of time. THANKS. * It was at my pace, concise,
easy to understand, and I can't wait until I move on to another level of
advancement. I will certainly be using the PADI e-learning system again. This
course was excellent, online support also very excellent!! I would very strongly
consider taking more PADI online courses in the future. Very user friendly. *
This was a wonderful experience, I would definitely recommend it to anyone
looking to learn to scuba dive. * Overall, the course is clear and concise
and easy to navigate and very, very informative � thank you.
