hi every one my training starts on tuesday im very excited and nervous i hope you wont mind me asking lots of silly questions i have looked at lots of sites for info and this looks the best . i have this silly dream that one day i could work at a dive shop/school in sunny climates away from this weather .ps.please dont burst my bubble

hello, good luck with the training. PADI Open Water course I assume?

Try and relax and have fun. Let us know how it goes and I'll try and answer any question you might have.

thanks wookie and yes padi i cant wait

This isn't a bubble burster ... just some planning help.

Take every class you can after your openwater ... advanced, rescue, divemaster, asst. instructor, instructor and as many specialties as you can get your hands on. Also get training in small craft handling, marine safety and marine mechanics.

On top of all the classes, dive ... dive ... dive! The more training and experience you have, the more hire-able you will be.

The most important part in all this ... HAVE FUN!!

thanks rcontrera i hope this will be the start of something great

The things you will learn are very important but to have success don’t forget to have fun.
