IANTD FULL CAVE COURSE

The complete cave diving course is seven to eight days of intense diving and training skills. It is a more efficient and less costly approach to learn and earn the cave diver training certification. For potential students who are prepared with their diving skills including being master of the BCD and their confidence level is comfortable, there should be no problems with being successful in completing the training. However, you will need to prove your abilities to earn the cave diving certification.

There are various approaches to cave diving training. For many, divers take the training divided into sections such as the Cavern Diver Course followed by the Introduction to Cave Diving Course. Another style is to combine both courses into one that is usually titled Cave Diver. Completing the cave diving training is presented into two parts called Apprentice Cave Diving Course and the Full Cave Diving Course or combined the two courses into four or five days titled Full Cave or Cave Diver II. For those divers whose diving skills lack experience or marginal or the confidence level is questionable then acquiring the cave diving training into sections is the best approach.
