Our bundles are completed in structured phases designed to build your knowledge, skills, and confidence as you work toward earning two SSI Specialty certifications!
STEP 1: DIGITAL LEARNING
Begin each specialty with SSI's interactive digital learning materials, which you will complete at your own pace before attending your first class. These materials provide the foundation of scuba knowledge, including dive theory, equipment basics, safety practices, and specialty-specific concepts.
STEP 2: IN-PERSON TRAINING
Depending on the specialties you choose (see "Eligible Courses" tab), your in-person training may include classroom instruction, pool training, workshops, or practical exercises depending on the specialty. During this phase, you will work directly with an instructor to review key concepts, develop new skills, and receive personalized coaching. This blended approach allows participants to:
- Learn directly from an experienced instructor
- Ask questions and receive immediate guidance
- Develop a genuine connection with your classmates and instructor
- Facilitates collaborative work and learning
- Practice essential skills in a controlled environment
- Build comfort and confidence with the equipment and underwater techniques
In-Person Training Requirements: Vary by specialty. Please refer to the individual specialty course pages for specific training requirements.
STEP 3: OPEN WATER DIVES
Many specialty courses include open water training dives where you will apply your new knowledge and skills in real diving conditions. These dives allow you to gain practical experience while demonstrating the requirements needed for certification.
Open Water Requirements: Vary by specialty. Please refer to the individual specialty course pages for the required number of dives and scheduling information.
Important: Course schedules are subject to change based on season, weather conditions, instructor availability, and student needs. If additional in-water training is required, students may be asked to attend additional pool sessions or complete extra dives outside of scheduled class time, which may be subject to additional fees. Please note that dives being conducted from a charter will also include additional fees.
COURSE INCLUDES:
The course fee includes:
- Digital learning materials for the selected specialties
- Course registration and certification fees
- Lifetime access to the SSI digital logbook, digital certification cards, dive tables, and related resources
- All scheduled training sessions and open water dives required for your selected specialties
Additional costs, if applicable, may include but are not limited to charter or boat fees, park or site entry fees, required personal equipment, equipment rentals, custom or expedited class fees, private class fees, and/or any additional dives or training time required beyond the standard course. Please call the shop if you have any questions about what additional costs may apply to your specific course or training schedule!

**This list of basic equipment would have been purchased for your Open Water certification and is not included in our rentals due to sanitation and fit.
RENTAL GEAR (Not Included in Course Fee)
Use of rental equipment for any open water dives conducted outside of the classroom is not included in the course fee; however, rental equipment may be available to rent.
Please Note: Students are responsible for picking up, transporting, and returning their own rental equipment. If transport is needed on our part, an additional surcharge may apply.
To ensure a safe, successful, and enjoyable dive experience, we ask that all students take the following responsibilities seriously throughout the course:
GEAR TRANSPORTATION
Students are responsible for transporting their own personal equipment and rental equipment to and from each class and dive session. If you are unable to do so, we may be able to assist with transport for an additional surcharge. Please let us know in advance so we can make arrangements.
PUNCTUALITY & ATTENDANCE
Arrive on time for all sessions. Diving requires structure and safety protocols - late arrivals may miss important briefings and could be asked to reschedule at an added cost. Full attendance is required for certification.
PRE-COURSE STUDY
If your course includes eLearning or textbook materials, they must be completed before your first in-person session. This ensures you understand the theory and can focus on skills during practical training.
MINDSET & FOCUS
Stay attentive and engaged throughout the course. Come ready to learn, ask questions, and support your fellow divers. Please be mindful that this is a classroom setting and we are all here to learn together. If you would like a private class, please contact the shop for more information. Teamwork is a key part of the experience!
MEDICAL & PHYSICAL READINESS
You must complete a medical questionnaire prior to starting the course. If any answers indicate a potential condition, a physician's clearance may be required. Being comfortable in the water and in reasonably good health is essential for completion of the prerequisites of this course. Swimming is involved.
COMMUNICATION
Keep in touch with us if anything changes - whether it is scheduling conflicts, health concerns, or gear issues. We are here to help, and clear communication ensures a smoother experience for everyone!
