The course consists of 4 main phases:

• Knowledge Development: We use PADI's online eLearning system which takes the place of the textbook, allowing students the flexibility to complete at their own pace. The eLearning takes 10-12 hours to complete and engages students with videos, dialogue and text. The eLearning must be completed before the first day of class.

• Classroom: You will come to a class session typically the Thursday evening before your weekend session to take a final quiz, learn how to use dive computers, and learn how to assemble and disassemble your gear. You'll also learn some basics on how to care for the gear while it is in your possession. This class generally runs for 2-3 hours.

• Confined Water Training: Skill Development in the Pool: This is where you will learn how to dive safely and competently in Confined Water. You will master key skills that you will use while diving in the real world. The confined water will generally take place over the course of 2 pool sessions and typically consists of 4-5 hours each session (Total confined water time is 8-10 hrs).

• Open Water Checkout Dives: You will take the skills that you've mastered in the pool and use them in the real world. You'll go on 4 total dives over the course of a 2 day period at Lake Pleasant, using your skills to explore and enjoy the underwater world!
