SSI Ecology Courses - 5 Course Bundle

The Open Water Diver course is the world’s most popular scuba diving program and has served as the first full certification dive course for millions of people around the world – allowing them to explore the wonders lying hidden beneath the waves.During the Open Water course, students learn the fundamentals of scuba diving in a safe and supportive environment. The program is broken down into knowledge development sections, videos, confined underwater sessions for developing skills, and open water dives which take divers for their first long glide along the reefs.Here at Scuba Seekers, we place a heavy emphasis on teaching students the proper foundational techniques of diving right from the start. Each student will also be provided with their own dive computer to use throughout the class. It’s important our students leave the Open Water course feeling confident and comfortable in the water as well as with a deep understanding of the limits of diving in order to dive competently and safely.

This exciting course is all about fine tuning your diving skills while also introducing you to a range of different types of diving environments – such as deeper dives, night dives, drift dives and more. The Advanced Course is a great way to get more dives under your belt while continuing to learn under the supervision of your Instructor which will help increase your confidence in the water.The Advanced builds on what you learned in your Open Water course and develops new capabilities over a total of 5 adventure dives from the below list:Deep DivingNavigationNight DivingDrift DivingPerfect BuoyancySearch and RecoveryUnderwater NaturalistFish IDPlus more

With the Enriched Air Nitrox (EANx) certification, divers are able to dive with a higher concentration (up to 40%) of oxygen compared to standard air tanks.Why is this beneficial? It means:Longer bottom times. Diving with Nitrox means you absorb less nitrogen which allows you to stay underwater longer as it lengthens your no-decompression limits.Longer repetitive dive times. If undertaking multiple dives in a day, you'll have a longer allowable bottom time on subsequent dives than if you were using air.Shorter surface intervals. Breathing less nitrogen shortens the required “off-gas” time needed between dives which means you can get back in the water quicker.Less fatigue. This last point is up for debate but many divers claim diving on nitrox makes them less tired than diving on air.The Enriched Air Nitrox course is conducted as a dry course and with the eLearning done ahead of time, you can easily take the course alongside your guided dives – meaning there's no need to sacrifice underwater time during your dive holiday.

Knowing how to dive is one thing, but an in-depth understanding of the why behind it is an essential component for a well-rounded dive education. The SSI Science of Diving program provides an extensive study of physics, physiology, and chemistry and how they affect the human body while scuba diving. The course also touches on important things to know about the marine environment and takes a closer look into diving equipment. This specialty is required training for most SSI Professional programs, as well as some Extended Range programs, and is an essential way to expand your dive knowledge. We offer the Science of Diving completely online for those wishing to learn from the comfort of their own home while on those long surface intervals between dive holidays. This can be done one of two ways: 1. Independent Learning: you can purchase the digital kit from us and complete all eLearning and the exam online to earn your certificate completely independently. 2. Virtual Classroom Session: complete the eLearning followed by a virtual Zoom session with one of our Instructors to hear their expertise on the subject and delve further into the course materials. Engaging discussions and questions are encouraged and each Zoom session will be arranged between the Instructor and the student(s) on a date/time that suits all parties. Upon completion, you will be halfway to earning the coveted SSI Divemaster rating and earn the SSI Science of Diving specialty certification.
