The first step to getting your certification is to register for the PADI  Open Water Diver course 

Then attend a one-weekend session at our World Class dive training facility in Richmond Hill.  
Scuba 2000 is the only dive training facility in the GTA that has its own on-site private training pool. 
You will be provided with all the materials and most of the gear you will need for the weekend.  
You supply your own mask and snorkel; we supply the rest.  If you need to purchase a mask and snorkel, we offer a discount for our students.

We are proud to say that we are rated as a PADI 5 Star Instructor Development Centre, meaning you can be sure our training is of the highest standard and in line with global standards.

  

WHAT WILL YOU LEARN?

 1. Knowledge Development
During the first phase of your scuba lessons, you'll learn the basic principles of scuba diving such as
•    What to consider when planning dives.
•    How to choose the right scuba gear for you.
•    Underwater signals and other diving procedures.


You'll learn this valuable information by:

  • reading it in the PADI Open Water Diver Manual or
  • by using the PADI Open Water Diver eLearning.

At the end of each chapter, you'll answer questions about the material to ensure you understand it.

Along the way, your PADI Instructor will also be there to assist you with anything you don't understand.

At the end of the course, you’ll take a final exam that ensures you have thorough knowledge of scuba diving basics.
You'll also watch videos that preview the scuba skills you'll practice in a swimming pool. In addition to the video, your instructor will demonstrate each skill for you.

 

2. Confined Water Dives
This is what it’s all about – diving.

You'll develop basic scuba skills in our pool.

The basic scuba skills you learn during your certification course will help you become familiar with your scuba gear and be comfortable underwater. Some of the essential skills you learn include:
•    Setting up your scuba gear.
•    How to clear water from your mask.
•    Entering and exiting the water.
•    Buoyancy control.
•    Basic underwater navigation.
•    Safety procedures.
You'll practice these skills with an instructor until you're comfortable. When you're ready, it's time for your underwater adventure to begin at an open water dive site.


3. Open Water Dives - one weekend 
After your confined water dives, you'll head to open water, where you and your instructor will make 4 dives, over two days.
On these dives you'll apply the skills you learned in the confined water.  We dive almost every weekend from end of May to end of Nov - we will contact you to choose the date for the certicication dives.
