COURSE DETAIL


The GUE Fundamentals course combines theory and in-water sessions to cultivate and refine the skills divers seek through proper buoyancy control, trim, propulsion, teamwork and other GUE principles.

GUE Fundamentals Courses either run over 4 consecutive days or during weekends. Weekend courses run over two consecutive weekends (Saturday, Sunday then the following Saturday and Sunday). The course includes lecture presentations, land drills and confined water training including a minimum of six training dives. Your GUE Registration Fee is not included and is paid directly via GUE's website.

In addition to transforming the average diver's skill level, including divers looking to improve their platform for photography and underwater videography, the Fundamentals Class is a prerequisite for GUE's more advanced Technical Diver and Cave Diver classes as well as other courses within the GUE curriculum.


Equipments

All major pieces of equipment are included in the course cost, including regulators, backplate and wing, rigid single-bladed fins, tanks and weights.

Candidates are expected to own or purchase their own mask and backup mask, surface marker buoy, spool and wetnotes.
