Completed my Open Water... now what? TDI?

[quikcolin]

Hi there,

I recently completed my open water certification with SDI, and this September I plan to complete my advanced open water.

What is this called in SDI's programs? TDI? There are a handful of options on their site and i have no idea what is what?

Could someone point me in the right direction... I plan to do the "advanced" online component and then perform my open water in the fall... a website link would be awesome

Thanks!

The SDI Advanced programs requires an individual to complete four different specialties and to log 25 dives prior to qualifying for the Advanced rating.
There is an intermediate step called the Advanced Adventure Diver that requires the completion of five dives. One each from five different specialties. There are two core dives required, they are deep and navigation. If an individual completes the Advanced Adventure Diver program they can apply it towards one of the four required specialties for their Advanced Diver rating.
Some of the SDI Specialties are available on line including Deep, Underwater Navigation, Computer Nitrox and Wreck.
I hope this helps to answer your questions

Try this will take you to the page on tdisdi website about their advance development program International Training :: Get Certified :: Advanced Diver Development Program :: English

You can either take the specialties one at a time or you can combine them into a single multi day course.

Good diving
