Online Digital Diver Training
Who does not like learning with the convenience of studying in your own time? Some of us are in some sort of lockdown or quarantine and running out of shows and movies to watch so why not use your time to study digital diver training? And, increase your knowledge about scuba diving after your Koh Tao open water course. For instance, the Nitrox course.
There are now many courses that can now be done online, including the exam, and any academic sessions with an instructor can be via webinars, skype, zoom, etc. There is no reason for you not to continue your diving education so when you can travel to Koh Tao you are better prepared and educated.
We have already mentioned Science of Diving and Marine Ecology for SSI professionals but there are other courses too such as Coral Identification and for the ecology courses you don’t have to be a diver to study them.
How Does Digital Diver Training Work?
You can read all the theory and complete the exam from where you are, online, along with any sessions with an instructor, the cost of the course depends on how much diving is involved. Watch out for information on the individual courses and any costs, payment can be via Paypal or bank transfer, so it’s easy. Some courses require diving sessions and these can be scheduled once the current situation improves. If you are unable to travel then the courses can be canceled by the end of this year at no cost.
In conclusion, what this current situation does give you is that you can study the theory for a course or courses all the way to the final exam and if you don’t want to pay for the certification or are unable to complete the diving portions the course can be canceled and the fee can be refunded. SSI has changed their pricing agreement for this year due to the virus and we can pass this on to you, our customers.
