The first certification is not just a simple thing, but:
  • Most people can do it. You just need to WANT to do it.
  • There are several good training programs.
  • Two programs available here are "PADI" and "NAUI". (more abbreviations)
  • Certification training is important, and you will learn what you need to dive as deeply as 60 feet and be safe.
  • You will also learn what you need to know to HAVE FUN
   

My first certification was through PADI. Later, some others were through NAUI.
