My courses are priced to be competitive, while providing personalized and comprehensive instruction. With every course I teach, I strive to go above and beyond the basic curriculum, in order to reinforce the course fundamentals. This approach produces safer and more competent graduates. I also work to ensure maximum flexibility with your schedule, while choosing top diving operations as industry partners. Pricing includes a base amount that covers the learning materials, certification fees, and instruction. Additional expenses include travel, accommodations, boat fees, rental gear, and required personal gear (this varies depending on course type). I strongly encourage students to combine their training with travel, since I feel it maximizes your diving exposure and ability, while providing an adventure to create lasting memories and interactions.
