Theory

How you learn

Theoretical Training & Online Learning

The theoretical component of the SSI Enriched Air Nitrox program will be completed online through the SSI e-learning platform, allowing participants to study the course material at their own pace prior to and during the course.

The diving center will also provide online webinars with professional SSI instructors, offering participants the opportunity to review the course material, ask questions, clarify concepts, and prepare for the practical training.

In addition to the online theoretical training, a theoretical briefing and debriefing will be conducted before and after each dive. The relevant theoretical concepts, procedures, safety considerations, and practical skills will therefore be reviewed and reinforced throughout the diving program, immediately before each practical session.

This combination of e-learning, instructor-led webinars, and continuous pre-dive briefings and post-dive debriefings ensures that the theoretical knowledge is continuously reinforced and directly connected to the practical diving experience.

Optional In-Person Theoretical Training

Participants who prefer to complete the theoretical training in person at our diving center may request an additional classroom-based theoretical session.

The cost for this optional service is €100 per person.

This service is optional and must be requested and arranged in advance.
