**Note, students who complete this course will still need to perform the 4 open water dives and associated skills, separately before receiving the PADI Open Water Diver certification. We offer a trip to Curacao for completing the open water dives (see PADI Open Water Diver in Curacao).

**Required paperwork** Before any pool activities, participants must fill out the following forms and send to learntoscubadivewithjrhodes@gmail.com.
