SSI Specialty Diver is your first step toward becoming an SSI Master Diver, and can begin as soon as you complete your Open Water Diver training. By completing any two SSI Specialty programs that interest you, and logging 12 open water dives, you will receive the SSI Specialty Diver recognition rating along with your SSI Specialty program certifications.
We recommend taking the Nitrox and Perfect Buoyancy class as the first class after your Open Water to better your abilities as a diver.
