From PADI eLEARNING COURSES to SDI
Our Renown PADI Online Course Offer Goes SDI!

Dressel Divers has finally upgraded from being a PADI elearning course provider to SDI. For over three decades, we have offered PADI online dive courses and now, to stay ahead of the curve, we take it to the next level. Our years of PADI teaching experience, offering PADI elearning courses, have laid a solid foundation from which to push the envelope with our top-of-the-range new SDI online courses program. Nothing has changed, only much improved. Previously, we facilitated the strongest initiation PADI e-learning courses available; now we proudly offer even stronger SDI programs.

What Are the Advantages of eLearning?
Sign in and start SDI eLearning today! Why wait for a weekend or vacation to start a scuba diving course when you can do it now with eLearning? For example, the SDI Open Water Diver Course has these 3 parts, the first being ideal for online eLearning:

  1. Knowledge Development (with SDI eLearning or in a classroom) to understand basic principles of scuba diving
  2. Confined Water Dives to learn basic scuba skills
  3. Open Water Dives to use your skills and explore!

The knowledge development part, which needs no pool or ocean is ideal for eLearning, electronically providing you with the full interactive student manual, review questions, quizzes and the educational videos.

SDI eLearning, instead of sitting in class, is the smart option because it keeps your precious weekend or vacation time totally free from classroom study. It is especially great for kids that love everything internet based and find it easier to concentrate without weekend or vacation distractions.

Apart from the beginners’ courses, the Refresher and the Advanced courses are also available with eLearning, with all the same advantages. See the full list further down.

HOW DOES SDI ELEARNING WORK in comparison to PADI eLearning?

SDI elearning - PADI elearning

The eLearning system constantly gauges your progress presenting you with interactive presentations that include

VIDEOS / AUDIO / GRAPICS / READING / SHORT QUIZZES

Available on a mobile device, computer, laptop or tablet, eLearning allows you to study anywhere any time at your own pace. Although very user friendly, the eLearning system understands that access to a SDI professional center and instructor, specialized in eLearning is also important.

Therefore, has made it compulsory to designate such a dive center as tutor when signing up for eLearning.

What are the benefits of using eLearning with Dressel Divers?

The Dressel Divers SDI eLearning is a specialized department of Dressel Divers International, which using PADI has always been recognized by them for its worldwide outstanding achievement in PADI diver training and PADI eLearning. Our commitment to excellence is demonstrated by the fact that on July 2015 we received the PADI Award for Outstanding Achievement in recognition of 75,000 PADI student certifications, that our company has already issued in the span of its history.  Given that for many years prior to this we also offered the equivalent certification courses as an SSI Platinum Facility the real number surpasses 115,000 student diver certifications.

At the same time Dressel Divers also received from PADI the Award for Outstanding Achievement offering the PADI Discover Scuba Diving program to 55,000 students. Again, add to this the fact that for many years prior we offered a similar resort course as SSI Platinum Facility and the true number of Discover Scuba Diving participants on that date surpasses 85,000. Adding up both student categories and to date, Dressel Divers has taught well over 200.000 people how to dive and this with an impeccable accident free safety record!
