PADI eLearning makes it easy to fit scuba lessons into a busy schedule. Complete the independent study part of your course whenever, wherever it’s convenient for you. Work at your own pace, online or offline, using a computer or mobile device. Connect with your instructor for inwater training, or whenever you have a question.
eLearning time commitment: 2-4 hours

Open Water Checkouts With Your Instructor (MUST BE SCHEDULED SEPARATELY, Additional Fee)
During four dives, you'll locate objects large and small using different search patterns. You’ll get hands-on experience using a lift bag and, on the last dive, you’ll plan and execute a mock search operation.
Total time commitment: 2-3 days (dives must be completed over two days minimum)
Required gear: Lift bag, compass
