How is the course taught at Island Divers?
Knowledge Development
When you sign up, you take away the 'Adventures in Diving' ‘Crewpak’
containing the manual that accompanies the course. You will need
to read through the five chapters which relate to the five dives
that you will be doing during the course and complete the relevant
Knowledge Reviews.
Ahead of the dives, your instructor will run through these, clarify
any points that you may not have fully understood and answer any
queries.
Open Water
During the UK diving season, there are many opportunities to come
to open water with us to complete your five course dives. The Advanced
Open Water course can be completed over two days and we organise
training trips to the coast and to the inland lakes throughout the
UK diving season.
If you prefer, you also have the option of accompanying us on one
of our trips to Cyprus or Malta and completing your Advanced Open
Water course in one of these locations. |
