Navigation Diver Specialty Course in Denver

Why take this course?

When you’re underwater, knowing where you are and where you’re going comes in handy, especially if you’re looking for that beautiful reef or incredible wreck you’ve heard all about. The Navigation Diver Specialty Course will help you become a pro at finding your way underwater. During your Navigation Specialty course, you’ll learn underwater navigation dive procedures, techniques, planning, organization and solutions to potential problems.

Navigation Diver Specialty Course

Once you complete four SSI specialties and digitally log 24 dives you will automatically be sent your digital Level 3/Advanced Diver Recognition card. There is no charge for this certification recognition.

What will I do?

Your Navigation Diver Specialty Course starts by completing the 5 chapters in your digital online manual. Next, there will be a classroom session to answer any questions you may have about the material, clarify important points, and discuss the open water dives. You’ll also be introduced to natural navigation, underwater patterns, distance estimation and further your compass navigation skills. You’ll put these skills into practice during the last step of your training – three open water dives.

What will I need?

  • SSI Navigation online manual (included in course fee)
  • Dive computer (computers can be rented)
  • Dive slate (optional, but highly recommended)
  • Compass
  • Show proof of being an SSI Referral diver, Open Water diver or hold an equivalent certification from another recognized training agency.
    • Unfortunately you will not be able to participate in the program without showing the A-1 professional proof of certification.
    • While you may register for the specialty course as a Referral Diver, you must complete your open water certification dives before you can complete any specialty course dives.
  • Be at least 10 years old
  • Have a MySSI account.  Be sure to upload a digital photo to your account and enter a complete address. (You’ll need this in order to access your online learning material.)

Be sure to download, print, complete all required areas on each form (name, date, initials, etc.) and hand the completed documents to the instructor, when you arrive for your class.
