Junior Open Water Diver Certification

Young adults ages 10 to 14 years old can be fully certified as Junior Open Water Divers. That means they read the same academic material, take the same tests, and perform the same scuba skills in both the pool and during their certification dives as do adults.

So what do you gain when you take a dedicated Junior Open Water Diver course? Kids get to learn with other kids instead of adults. Kids get to spend a little more time learning the material and performing the skills. And we can make it a lot more fun!

To increase safety standards, the instructor to student ratio for children ages 10 to 14 across all agencies is 2 to 1, which is half that of the adult ratios. That means we have dedicated more instructors to our kids programs so your budding scuba divers can learn in a safe and fun environment.

We welcome kids in our regularly scheduled adult classes as well, so make sure to check out our adult Open Water Diver Course offerings!






Becoming a certified Open Water Diver is your first and most important step toward all your adventures to come. Denver Divers’ training philosophy is designed to give you self-confidence and safety in the water through focused personalized instruction and repetition. We offer several training benefits that will insure you learn how to dive safely and comfortably, bringing you a lifetime of amazing diving!


Regular Open Water Diver class and pool sessions are offered over a weekend – Friday night (6-9pm), all day Saturday (9am-5pm) and all day Sunday (9am-5pm).

Upon request
 Your graduated Junior Diver will have a number of opportunities to keep diving in confined spaces (in Colorado, this means the pool!)
