When Can You Start?

Because Diversified Aquatics specializes in teaching individuals, couples, families and small groups, we don’t limit our training to pre-scheduled courses with inflexible schedules. We can teach on weekends, weekdays, weeknights — whatever your needs are. We’ll work with you to build a curriculum around your schedule.

When talking to us about scheduling diver training, here are some things you will want to keep in mind:

• You should allocate approximately eight to twelve hours to completing the self-study program prior to your first academic review/skill development session.
• If you elect to do your academic review/skill development here in Jacksonville, it will take 12 to 16 hours. We typically do this on a weekend (or any other two-day time frame), or spread it out over a series of weeknights.
• Open-water training takes an additional two days. In so far as our best open-water training sites are approximately two hours away, you may want to spend the night at a nearby hotel.
• Yet another option is to do all of your in-water training at one of our local springs. This may allow us to move through the entire curriculum in as little as two days (although it’s safest to allow three).

In so far as everyone’s needs are different, there is no one approach to scheduling training that’s best for every student. Let us know what your needs are and we will work out a curriculum that meets your individual situation.

Private Courses

If our regularly scheduled course formats meets you needs, there is a good possibility we may be able to arrange for private instruction on a one-on-one basis with our instructors. Contact us for more information.
