Our Commitment to You
At Dive911, we are committed to ensuring the success of every student, recognizing that each individual learns at their own pace. Our philosophy is to provide personalized guidance and support for as long as necessary, empowering our students to safely explore the underwater world.
Personalized Instruction
We are dedicated to maintaining low student-to-instructor ratios to ensure an optimal learning experience. Most of our courses are taught with a maximum ratio of 3:1. For those who prefer more individualized attention, we offer private course options tailored for 1:1 instruction.
Time on Task
Our training philosophy centers around a concept called “time on task”, which focuses on maximizing the time students spend in the water. With Dive911, it’s common for training dives to exceed 30 minutes in length, ensuring that each participant has ample opportunity to practice and refine their abilities.
“One can not articulate enough the quality of instruction that Dive911 brings to the diving community. They are objectively the best in the industry. Grow. Learn. Become more through Dive911.“
