Beginner Course: Novice Diver NDL Diving

The course includes theory, pool sessions + 2 dives and meets the EN 14153-1/ISO 24801-1 "Supervised Diver" standard.

Description

If you enjoy your first, trial dive and want diving to become your hobby, you will need to take a training course and get certified.
At our school, in just three or four days of classes you will study the theoretical part of diving fundamentals (this part can also be completed remotely, so as not to spend days of your holiday), and do practical sessions — so that later, with the coveted certificate in hand, you can dive anywhere in the world, already without an instructor. Very often, after finishing the entry-level course our graduates continue their training, improving their skills and acquiring specialities.
Our office is located in a convenient, easy-to-reach place. Diving classes are held in a spacious, bright, well-equipped classroom.

NDL is the first and only Russian training system certified by the EUF (European Underwater Federation) to the international EN and ISO standards. At our school (or rather, our partners' school) classes are held for all training programmes of this system.

Novice Diver NDL — a course for beginners. It includes the study of theoretical materials, pool sessions + 2 dives.

The theoretical part contains the knowledge a diver needs in physics, general oceanology, human anatomy and physiology, and the design and operation of diving equipment.
The practical part contains a set of exercises in the water (pool and open water) needed to acquire safe diving skills.
The NDL NOVICE Diver course is part of the DIVER NDL course.
All requirements applied to a student in the DIVER NDL course also apply in the NDL NOVICE Diver course, except that the NOVICE DIVER NDL certificate does not require successful performance of some of the skills included in the DIVER NDL course.

The NDL NOVICE DIVER qualification allows you to:
- Plan, conduct and log no-decompression dives accompanied by a professional, in appropriate equipment, within the limits of the knowledge and skills gained during training.
- Rent diving equipment and receive other services related to diving.
- Upgrade your diver qualification to DIVER NDL.

Students under 15 can take the Junior NOVICE DIVER courses.
The minimum age for enrolment in the Junior NOVICE DIVER course is 10 years.

Later, upon reaching 15, Junior NOVICE DIVER NDL holders can upgrade to NOVICE DIVER NDL without additional procedures.
