Open water certification

Your instructor will go over what you have learned through your independent study, eLearning, and give you a mini quiz. You will go through any questions you might have had throughout your independent study. From there we will walk you through your gear, properly size you for your gear, and go through what you will experience on your first day at the pool. Than at the pool you will get to practice your scuba skills in the pool and conduct your swim tests. 

There will be a class room session to go over the independent study, eLearning, get you sized up in the gear and go over any questions you might have. Then there will be a 2 day pool session (6-8 hours total).
