Confined Training - Includes all instructional materials (text kit). Five 30 to 45 minute classroom sessions. Four 60 to 90 minute pool sessions. Private Course are available for individuals or groups, contact Underwater World for details. Sunday Evening or
Mon & Wed Evening
What needs to be done for the first class:            
For the Sunday, Monday & Wednesday class, you must complete at least the first chapter in your text book, do the work sheet at the end of the chapter, and view the first section of the DVD. Please note, the work sheet is the last page of each chapter. We highly recommended that you do more textbook work than just the one chapter. Each class meeting will cover another chapter in your text book. You will also need to prepare your mask, as described in the first chapter of your textbook. We recommended that you bring mask defogger and a 3-ring binder for your logbook (some text kits come with a binder, otherwise you will need to purchase one the right size to fit your logbook). Private classes: you should read through the text completely, completing the worksheets as you go.
Things to bring to class:              
Your text kit & something to write with. Swimsuit & towel, Mask, snorkel, fins & boots.
PART TWO              
Open Water Training -Requires two days of diving in clear water of our lake. Our local dive site is excellent for a local lake with an average of 22 foot visibility, just 40 miles southeast of Omaha. We will furnish ALL equipment for you, except your basic equipment. We also offer dive trips to Roatan or Utila, Honduras when our local lake is closed.
PADI and Underwater World also offer a "Student Referral Program". With this referral program you can take your open water training in most exotic places.
