Scientific Diving II

This is the second of a two-course sequence to train students in scientific diving based on guidelines from the American Academy of Underwater Sciences (AAUS). The course will build on the theoretical training from the first course and expands on AAUS training standards including in-water training, including refining basic SCUBA skills, developing dive rescue skills, conducting emergency responses, expanding Open Water skills and task loading, Nitrox diving, and methods in data collection. Upon successfully completing all requirements of this two-course sequence, students will earn a Scientific Diving Certification under the auspices of the AAUS. Note: This course includes a $1200 course fee.
