Checkout Dive

The Checkout Dive is a flexible evaluation program designed to ensure that a diver’s skills, knowledge, and foundational competencies meet the minimum standards required for the ISE course they wish to enter. It is particularly useful for:

  • Bridging small gaps in skills or theory before advancing to a higher-level class
  • Assessing a diver’s readiness for a specific ISE program
  • Crossover evaluations for divers certified by other agencies, allowing them to transition into the closest equivalent ISE course with confidence and proper alignment

Each Checkout Dive is individually tailored to the student. Instructors review buoyancy, trim, propulsion, situational awareness, communication, and theoretical understanding to confirm that the diver is prepared for the demands of the next training level. If minor discrepancies are found, targeted coaching is provided to equalize performance and ensure consistency with ISE standards.
