Self-study -You’ll be provided with a manual, and tasked to read the chapter related to the specific dive you have chosen (chapters are about 20 pages long). Complete the Knowledge Review for that chapter (about 12-15 questions) which you review with your Instructor before your dive. There are no DVD’s, quizzes or exams to complete, and no classroom sessions!
During the day out on the boat, You’ll complete 5 adventure dives including the compulsory Deep Adventure Dive and Navigation Adventure Dive, plus 3 of your own choosing. Set up your equipment and complete your pre-dive safety checks.
