Content of course

You don't have enough time to complete the full Open Water Diver course. Then you can take the PADI Scuba Diver course. In principle, the PADI SCUBA DIVER course contains about half of the PADI Open Water training. The course is intended for participants who don't have enough time for the full Open Water course or who become ill during the training and therefore cannot complete the full course. Those who complete the PADI SCUBA DIVER course are restricted to only being allowed to dive to a maximum depth of 12m and only at diving centers under professional supervision, i.e. with a divemaster or an instructor.

But you have 12 months to complete the missing parts of the course to become an Open Water Diver. The PADI Scuba Diver license is valid for diving under supervison for life, but the recognition for the upgrade to OWD is only valid for 12 months. The upgrade must be completed within this period at our diving center or at any other PADI diving center worldwide.

The PADI Scuba Diver course consists of two parts.

PADI Open Water Touch App1. E-learning theory

First, you will study the entire diving theory in an online PADI e-learning course at home before the start of your vacation and also take your exam online. You will receive the complete Open Water Diver theory, but for the Scuba Diver you only have to work through the first 3 chapters of 5. However, for your later upgrade you already have the complete OWD e-learning package available.

The PADI Open Water Diver e-learning App is available for Apple and Android tablets as well as for PC. The app works also on a mobile phone however, we strongly advise against completing the e-learning course on the small display of a mobile phone.

The App will also be functioning OFFLINE, you'll need internet access only for the download of the app and for transmitting your exam results upon successful completion of the theory. In case you have questions during your studies, our instructors will be happy to answer by email. For technical questions about the app we will send you the contact data of the PADI customer service along with your download code of the app.

The e-learning course includes:

  • 5 interactive modules of scuba theory (you need to study module 1 - 3 for the Scuba Diver)
  • Texts, images, videos
  • Knowledge reviews and quizzes
  • Final exam online (not necessary to pass until your upgrade to Open Water)
  • PADI license fee is included in your theory app.
