Basic Open Water:

In general an Open Water Diver course consists of 3 parts:
Academics, Pool Training and Open Water Sessions

Academics - You can complete them online FREE when you sign up for SSI’s Online Training program, and then attend review sessions at your favorite SSI Dive Center.

Pool Training - you will learn all the skills you will be using in the open water in the safety of a pool.

Open Water Sessions - You will complete at least 4 open water dives and have the chance to experience everything you learned in the pool hands-on. (Open water can be defined as an open body of water such as a lake or the ocean).
