How long does it take to get certified?
Depends.
Scuba instruction is built on the mastery of classroom knowledge and water skills.
How long it takes to achieve that mastery depends on the individual. Generally
speaking, there will be four to six classroom and pool sessions that take place
over a period of three to six weeks. However, some instructors provide an intensive
course during successive weekends. On learn-to-dive vacations, you can use videos
or CDs for academic work at home, then complete your water skills training in
just a few days while on vacation.
