Instead of spending hours in the classroom, you may complete the 1st step on your own, starting RIGHT NOW!

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. We are available to help you with ANYTHING you may need additional help on! PADI eLearning is designed to be convenient and easy-to-use. You will be able to access eLearning anywhere you have a PC with an Internet connection - for the rest of your life! Also, you will be able to complete eLearning entirely on your own schedule--there are no class times or places to meet. eLearning will keep track of your progress, and you can begin again where you left-off last time.

 

eLearning utilizes multimedia to enhance the experience of learning how to dive. This includes:

 

• Multimedia content, including pictures and video clips

• Links to more-detailed explanations of relevant information

• Instant feedback on quizzes and tests

• Contact with dive instructors from Excellent Adventures Scuba

• A narrator, to read the course information aloud to you

• Access to dive tables

• Links to equipment knowledge and understanding

 

How much does this cost? The PADI Open Water Diver eLearning Course online is paid by credit card to PADI. The fees cover your knowledge development training and gives you unlimited access to an electronic version of the PADI Open Water Diver Manual (course textbook). Excellent Adventures Scuba charges a fee of $590 (US) for the in-water portion of your certification. This fee covers all of your pool sessions, rental equipment, dives and certification card.

 

 

eLearning will challenge you to master (and, through testing, demonstrate) course material. Through lessons and evaluations, you will deal with the information in eLearning much the same way you would with the traditional dive courses (taught with a workbook). As with traditional classroom dive instruction, passing scores on quizzes and tests will be required to complete the current eLearning program. The courses are not without a little bit of fun, though, too--the multimedia content helps to keep things lively and interesting.

 

Other equipment requirements: Regardless of the option you choose - you will need your own mask, snorkel and fins. We will give you guidance and introduce you to a local dive shop and get you a great deal on some great gear! We want to make sure you have the perfect fit!

 

Do you prefer a more conventional method of learning? Prefer a standard classroom setting?

 

We can do that too! Contact the Instructor and we will work with you to set up a convenient time for you! He will provide you further details and instruction to get you prepared for learning.  We will go over the same things that are covered in the elearning but in a comfortable classroom environment.
