How Far Do You Want to go?
To be a diver that is prepared for possible diving situations that may occur, you need the experience and training gained from SSI Specialty Courses.  In your Open Water Course you learned the basic skills of SCUBA diving.  Taking specialty courses is how you begin to fine tune and expand on your skills... This is a journey that explores beyond the surface of diving.

Each course provides you with the proper knowledge and skills to truly consider yourself an experienced diver. Our goal is to prepare you for the adventure that lies ahead, as well as make sure you have a good time doing it!

Taking a specific number of specialties and continuing your pursuit of dives allows you to earn higher levels of diver ratings. SSI’s ratings are the only ratings in the industry that combine training and experience requirements, proving that SSI ratings are truly earned.
