The Brownie’s program provides training in the form of knowledge.
The scuba industry verifies diver certifications as the diver comes into the dive store for air fills or contracts for dive charters. There is no such interaction with hookah diving systems. Once the system is purchased by a consumer, he might not ever have an inquiry about his training or diving experience. Brownie’s determined that the most prudent course of action is to provide free on-line training with the purchase of any Brownie’s Third Lung diving system and encourages the divers to seek in-water training from their local diving center prior to their solo open water dives.

Do I Need Training?YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES YES!!!
Diving can be one of the most exciting and rewarding activities you will ever experience. However, like most exciting activities, there are rules and procedures you must follow. Proper training is crucial to minimize risk and maximize enjoyment. Breathing in an underwater environment can be dangerous, even deadly, if you don’t know the rules or if you chose to ignore them. One of the biggest misnomers is that you do not need training when on Hookah because you are not wearing a scuba tank. That is an incorrect statement! Training is essential and the reason Brownie's Third Lung provides a FREE HOOKAH TRAINING COURSE with the purchase of any hookah compressor package. |
What is Brownie's Online Training |
|
Time to get wet! |
The online course will provide academic knowledge. To complete your training you’ll need to practice that knowledge in a controlled environment before venturing into “open water”. The course website, www.scuba-training.net, includes a list of affiliated independent scuba instructors and professional dive stores by geographic region. You should enroll in an in-water skills course with a professional scuba instructor to review your academic knowledge and practice your water skills.
Your instructor will review with you the topics covered in the online course and evaluate your comprehension of the course content. Next, they will arrange a series of dives in a controlled environment (usually a pool) to practice breathing through a regulator and other water skills. He or she will share techniques to improve your efficiency and comfort in the water. By working closely with your instructor, you will become a better (and safer) diver. As with any activity, you must be in adequate physical condition to participate safely. Check with your doctor before beginning any new activity that may induce stress, including diving. You can download a questionnaire to review with your doctor on our website, Medical Statements & Guidelines Does the customer get a “certification”? Your customer will receive a virtual Diploma upon completion of the academic portion of the course. You will also be able to print a Diploma when your student has successfully competed the in-water skills portion of the course. You can print the diploma for presentation to the student, or you can e-mail the diploma to the student who can print as desired.
