How to Earn your Scuba Diving Certification

Overview

Learn about scuba diving principles and terminology (either offline or online), then learn basic scuba skills in a pool (or pool-like environment) with a highly trained PADI Instructor. When you're ready, make four dives in an open water environment (the ocean, a lake) with your instructor supporting you every step of the way.

Prerequisites

  • Minimum age: 10
  • Ability to float or tread water without aids for 10 minutes
  • Ability to swim 200 metres with no aids or 300 metres with mask, fins and snorkel

PADI eLearning

PADI eLearning makes it easy to fit scuba lessons into a busy schedule. Learn about scuba diving principles and terminology whenever, wherever it's convenient for you. It's your course on your time. Study offline, or online using a computer or mobile device. Connect with your instructor whenever you have a question.

Time commitment: 5-10 hours

With Your Instructor

Practice using scuba gear in a pool (or pool-like environment) until you're comfortable. PADI training includes practice "mini dives" to help you build confidence in your new abilities before making four dives in open water.

Time commitment: 3 days

After This Course

Once you have completed this course you'll be eligible to enrol in a number of specialty courses, such as Digital Underwater Photographer, Enriched Air (Nitrox) Diver, Fish Identification and Underwater Navigator, just to name a few. If you are not sure which specialty to try first, enrol in the Advanced Open Water Diver course, which is like a specialty sample platter. If you don't have the opportunity to dive for six months (or longer), you can quickly refresh the knowledge and skills you learned in Open Water with the PADI ReActivate program. Your PADI certification never expires, but after a long period of inactivity, you may want to brush up on diving fundamentals and safety procedures.

Junior Divers

Divers certified between the ages of 10-14 earn a Junior Diver certification. Junior Open Water Divers automatically become Open Water Divers at age 15. Any replacement certification card or eCard purchased the day after the diver's 15th birthday will automatically show an Open Water Diver (not Jr. Open Water Diver) certification.
