Participants selected for the 2027 AF Youth Scuba Diver Program will be expected to complete all required components of the PADI Open Water certification program, including:

PADI e-Learning
PADI Confined Water/Pool Training
PADI Open Water/Certification Training

The current program schedule anticipates e-Learning completion by April 1, 2027, pool training during May 2027, and open-water/certification training during June or July 2027. Final pool and open-water training dates will be communicated once confirmed with Blue Planet Scuba. Because training requires coordination with the dive center and instructors, participants should make every effort to attend the scheduled training dates. Alternate training dates may be limited and are not guaranteed.
