Is written final exam a requirement or optional for SSI Stress & Rescue
Hello all -
I'm going through the miserable time of trying to get a refund after a horrid SSI Stress & Rescue class experience.
I don't want to go into all the details here (you can look for my old threads) but the bottom line is that we took the class & open water and were never entered into the SSI system as having taken Stress & Rescue. (aside from that, the class was useless and crammed into one night of pool & 'lecture')
I've been in contact with the dive shop owner and he tells me we weren't entered in the system because we did not take the optional final exam..
Can anyone with SSI Stress & Rescue certificate confirm that you took a written final exam? If so, did this happen prior to or after open water?

Thanks for any info!
