PADI Open Water Certification
As a certified PADI Open Water Diver, the most widely recognized and respected rating in the world, you have the freedom to dive with a buddy independent of a professional. Virtually anyone who is in good health, reasonably fit, and comfortable in the water can earn a PADI Open Water Diver certification. If you are age 12 to 14 or have a child between these ages, there is a PADI Jr. Open Water Diver program available. You will learn the fundamentals of scuba diving by studying the PADI open water manual and watching a DVD. You will then complete five Confined Water (pool) dives, Water skills assessment, Knowledge Development sessions and by completing four Open Water (ocean) dives.
(A 12-14 year old Jr. Open Water Divers is qualified to dive only when accompanied by another certified diver who is of legal age)
PADI Advanced Open Water Certification
After your five dives, you’ll be more comfortable in the water and simply enjoy diving more because you understand the underwater environment. The Advanced program at Dive Oahu has NO class sessions, only one orientation session. The home study and simple knowledge reviews make the bookwork easy. This allows you to concentrate on learning how to explore the underwater world with various types of dives that you can choose with your instructor. You will complete the deep and underwater navigation Adventure Dives. These dives boost your confidence as you build these foundational skills. Then, you choose three additional dives from more than 15 Adventure Dives to complete your course. You can go diving at night, check out the local wrecks in the area or take some really cool pictures of turtles– all during your PADI Advanced Open Water Diver course. You can complete the training in one weekend, or over two Saturdays or Sundays. Minimum Open Water Training: five dives over two days.
PADI Rescue Diver Course
Rewarding and fun - that best describes the PADI Rescue Diver course. This course will expand your knowledge and experience level: Rescue divers learn to look beyond themselves and consider the safety and well being of other divers. Although this course is serious, it is an enjoyable way to build your diving confidence. You can enroll in the Rescue Diver Course as a certified Open Water Diver (or have a qualifying certification from another training organization) and participate in the Rescue Diver knowledge development and rescue training sessions, in confined water only, while working on your Advanced Open Water Diver certification. To participate in the rescue training sessions in open water, and to participate in the open water rescue scenarios, you must be certified as a PADI Advanced Open Water Diver or have a qualifying certification from another training organization. • Missing diver procedures • Emergency oxygen delivery • Surfacing the unconscious diver • Dive first aid • In-water rescue breathing • Swimming & non-swimming rescues • Egress (exits) • Emergency scene management • First aid procedures for pressure related accidents • Panicked diver response • Dive accident scenarios • Underwater problems • Successful completion of a sanctioned CPR program within the past 24 months.
