The student should read the Study Guide available below and watch the DVD provided in order to pass the final exam. All the other necessary instruction and practice will be accomplished at the pool. The student should plan on attending several 1 to 2 hour sessions with the instructor at the designated pool location. You will receive hands-on instruction and begin using scuba equipment in the water in the first pool session. The Scuba Basics presentation will review the information you need to know and give a more detailed instruction on how to use Dive Tables. This Scuba Basics presentation might come in handy for you later on when you need a review of Dive Tables and the basic principles of SCUBA.

The student will be required to make a series of successful open water dives on two different days. In Utah, this is usually done in a hot spring in Midway that is about 50 feet deep with water about 94 degrees farenheit. The instructor will guide students through several exercises and practice all essential scuba skills.

Students will receive paperwork that will enable them to send for their Official SCUBA Certification Card after completion of the written final exam. Students will also receive a temporary certification card.
