SSI Levels of Experience – A Symbol of Success!
Be sure to reward yourself as you reach new milestones in your diving adventures. Utilizing SSI’s Levels of Recognition is a great way to do this. It’s an opportunity to commemorate your hard-won accomplishments and show the world you are one of diving’s elite. Whether certified through Scuba Schools International or another agency, you are eligible for SSI’s recognition program.
In order to achieve higher levels, just set goals and track the results. Every time you reach a new level, reward yourself with an upgraded recognition card. These cards symbolize excellence, commitment and loyalty in diving. The more dives you complete the higher levels of recognition you will earn. No additional training beyond Open Water Diver is required. All you have to do is get out there and dive!
A Level 5 Diver that has logged 100 Dives may be awarded with the Century Diver Card and a Level 9 Diver that has logged 500 dives or more, qualifies for the Gold 500 Diver Status. The Platinum 1000 Diver (Level 10) has logged 1000 dives or more.
The Platinum Pro 5000 Diver recognition level can only be reached by logging 5000 or more dives. Very few divers have the privilege to be called SSI Platinum Pro 5000 Divers, as it is the highest recognition level in diving. This group represents the “Who’s Who“ of the entire diving industry. Most are either recognized scientists, manufacturers, instructors and/or facility owners and are considered the ambassadors of diving.
