Advanced
Scuba Diver Course
This course is a continuing education certification course
for certified divers. It is an enjoyable program of continued supervised
diving experience designed to introduce divers to a variety of diving
activities including; night/low visibility diving, deep diving (to
130 feet), navigation, and at least three other electives.
Master Scuba Diver Course
This course is for the diver who wants to understand in depth
the science of diving. Class consists of physics, environment study,
physiological aspects, equipment, underwater navigation, search &
recovery, and light salvage. This class is then further enhanced by
eight open water dives to test your new knowledge.
Scuba Rescue Diver
This course trains divers in the knowledge and skills needed
to manage risks and effectively handle limited in-water problems and
diving emergencies. Included are: assists, transports, surface rescues,
and rescues from depth involving both boat and shore based skin and
scuba divers.
Advanced Scuba Rescue Diver
This is a certification course for certified scuba divers who
desire to assume greater rescue capabilities during diving activities.
The training emphasizes accident supervision and management with practical
applications in open water. This course is designed specifically to
provide the knowledge and skills necessary to help prevent diving
accidents, recognize life-threatening diving situations, and correctly
initiate and/or supervise rescue/assist procedures.
Night Diver
This course is to provide the diver with the skills and knowledge
needed to minimize the risks of diving at night. This class covers
planning and preparation, night diving equipment, procedures, problems,
hazards, navigation, and buddy system techniques.
Underwater Environment
This course is to expose the diver to the physical and biological
aspects of the diving environment with emphasis on the local area
This course will draw much of the subject material from related sciences,
e.g., oceanography, geology, biology, and ecology.
Underwater Photographer
This course is to provide the diver with the skills and knowledge
to enjoy underwater photography while minimizing the risks of such
activies. This is a course of underwater photography techniques, not
lab techniques.
Wreck Diver (External Survey)
This course is to provide the diver with the skills and knowledge
needed to gain experience and minimize risks in wreck diving. Wreck
diving (external survey) is defined as diving around a sunken vessel,
aircraft, or debris field.
Wreck Diver (Penetration)
This activity is defined as diving inside a sunken vessel,
aircraft, or similar structure. The class covers safety, hazards and
cautions, special risks of overhead environments, gas management,
entanglement, limited visibility, deep diving, equipment additions
and modifications, search methods, underwater navigation, legal aspects,
artifacts, treasure, salvage, archaeology and appropriate material
from other specialty courses.
Dry Suit Diver
Dry suit diving has become a lot more prevalent in recent years
in the recreational diving community. This course will train scuba
divers to properly use and maintain dry suits. By learning proper
dry suit usage and maintenance, you will extend your opportunities
for diving to year-round.
Deep Diver
Deep Diving is defined as dives made between 60 and 130 feet.
This course will teach the knowledge and skills of planning deep dives
while minimizing the risks and avoid the need for stage decompression.
Course includes information.
Nitrox, EANx
Upon successful completion of the course graduates are considered
competent to utilize EANx as a breathing medium in open water diving
activities without direct supervision. History of nitrox as a breathing
gas, Daltons law of partial pressures, physiology of oxygen
and nitrogen, depth limits, advantages, disadvantages and risks of
nitrox, oxygen toxicity, hazards and precautions of handling oxygen,
the concept of Equivalent Air Depth, use of EANx with Standard Air
Dive Tables, common gas mixing procedures, and gas analyzing procedures
are all covered in this course.
