SCHEDULE

 
 
 
The scheduling of our courses is over approximately 32 hours. You can attend the theory lessons in our own classroom where a member of staff will guide you through the videos and slides available making learning fun and easy in a relaxed atmosphere. After each session there is a multiple-choice quiz of 10 questions. Once all theory lessons are completed, there is a final exam consisting of 50 multiple choice questions and having passed this you move on to the pool sessions followed by the open water dives. Alternatively, if you choose to opt for the CD Rom version, the theory can be done at home. There is a multiple-choice quiz at the end of each section to gauge your progress through the theory sections. You then take your final exam on our premises and when you have passed this you move on to the pool and open water dives. The last option is the PADI Open Water Referral Course, where candidates do the theory sessions, pool sessions and take their final exam with us and then go abroad to do the open water dives to complete the course. If you choose this option, please be aware that you will have to arrange and pay for the overseas section yourself. We can sometimes help by giving details of reputable companies.
