PADI Scuba Divers have more knowledge and skills than Discover Scuba® Diving participants but are not qualified to dive independently. The PADI Scuba Diver course is (roughly) the first half of the PADI Open Water Diver course. There are three phases: knowledge development, confined water skill practice and open water dives. During the knowledge development section, you'll learn scuba diving terminology, underwater hand signals, and other scuba diving fundamentals via PADI eLearning® or classroom instruction. PADI eLearning gives you the flexibility to study at your convenience, online or offline using a computer or mobile device. After watching demonstrations of basic scuba skills, you'll practice them in a pool or calm water environment (confined water). Get comfortable wearing scuba equipment and master underwater maneuvers before you start diving in the ocean or other large body of water (open water). When you're ready, you'll make two open water dives where you'll perform the skills you learned and enjoy guided underwater exploration with your instructor. What's the difference between the PADI Scuba Diver course and the PADI Open Water Diver course? The Open Water Diver course takes 4-7 days to complete and includes a minimum of four open water dives. Certified Open Water Divers are qualified to dive independently with a buddy. The PADI Scuba Diver course is shorter (only 2-3 days) and includes just two open water dives. PADI Scuba Divers are trained to dive only under the direct supervision of a PADI Divemaster, Assistant Instructor or Instructor to a maximum depth of 12 metres/40 feet. Once you've successfully completed the PADI Scuba Diver course, you can upgrade to PADI Open Water Diver by completing the balance of the course. Ask your PADI Instructor for more information.
