SKILLS

In the Equipment Specialist Specialty Course divers will learn about the operation and maintenance of dive equipment. The more you know about how your gear works, the more comfortable you are with it, the more performance you get from it and the better you can care for it. This is not an equipment-repair course. Training relative to the repairing and overhauling of equipment, except for very minor servicing, is not part of the curriculum.

COURSE LAYOUT

• Reviews the theory, principles and operation of dive equipment.
• Recommended care and maintenance procedures, and equipment storage.
• Common problems with equipment and recommended professional maintenance procedures (may include a demonstration of repair procedures).
• Simple suggestions for comfortable equipment configurations and an introduction to new gear.
• Certification counts toward the PADI Master Scuba Diver rating.

The PADI Equipment Specialist Course is not an equipment repair course, but it provides the foundation you’ll want if you’re interested in learning equipment repair.
