At
Adventures in Diving we believe that at this stage of your diving
career you should be able to tailor the course to suit you. So after
the initial Course introduction you will be able to request any
of the school instructors to take you through any part of the course
that you wish. The choice is yours you can go as fast or as slow
as you like. All we ask is that you ensure all your paper work is
signed by an instructor as you meet the requirements.
