What to expect

Start your course from the comfort of your own home with the PADI eLearning®. While classrooms can be useful for anyone who prefers in-person learning, PADI eLearning® allows you to set your own pace and complete your studying wherever you feel comfortable. Then jump into the pool/confined water element of the course. This is where you’ll get to take your first breath underwater. You’ll practice using scuba gear with your instructor until you’re comfortable. During the confined water sessions, you’ll learn the basic skills in a progressive order. Each skill, such as ascending or clearing your mask, builds on the ones previous to it. PADI training includes practice “mini dives” to help you build confidence in your new abilities and allow you to try out your skills in a variety of scenarios.
