This short scholarship course takes place over a 3-day period. Training in snorkelling technique is provided and a short course in general reef biology, awareness and appreciation is given. Participants are requested to reside at the project base for the duration of the course.

This short scholarship course provides training in both scuba diving (to PADI Open Water certification) and in general reef biology, awareness and appreciation. The schedule is run over six days and can be completed in one session (the preferred option) or over a number of days.

This four-week intensive residential scholarship course is aimed primarily at local citizens wishing not only to obtained SCUBA training certification (to PADI Advanced Open Water certification) but also certification under the CCC Skills Development Programme (SDP).
