Learning to scuba dive has never been more convenient!
Whether you're on the go or want to take it slow, now you can complete the knowledge development portion of the PADI Open Water Diver, Advanced Open Water (AOW), Rescue Diver and Enriched Air (Nitrox) courses online with the Ski and Scuba Connection.
The courses
Learning to scuba dive (Open Water Diver) or enhancing current skills (Advanced Open Water, Rescue Diver or Enriched Air) requires both knowledge development (facts, principles, concepts) and practical application (skills,techniques, methods).
The PADI online courses provide the knowledge development portion you need.
You will develop the remaining skills by actually diving.
While you're working through the PADI courses online or after you complete all the segments, you can print your eLearning Record and bring it down to the Ski and Scuba Connection to start/enhance your underwater adventures.
Get started
After enrolling, PADI's eLearning system presents you with interactive presentations that include videos, audio, graphics and reading.
Short quizzes let you self-test your progress, and review and correct anything you might have missed. This lets you move through the program efficiently and at your own pace.
Completing the course
To complete your course you will then need to sign up for you dive portion of the class. Call the store for the next class.
Depending on the course you have enrolled in, the dive portion of the course will include some additional charges for in-water training and equipment rental. The Ski and Scuba Connection will also assist you if you want to start investing in your own personal set of equipment, along with the required purchases such as a recreational Dive Planner (Table or eRDP version) for the Open Water Diver course.
