Full-time Program- The program can be completed within 4 months (up to Dive Master) and 6 to 12 months (up to Instructor). Students are expected to attend all the courses, classes, and events held by Just Africa Scuba for 5 days of the week with 2 days off.

Accelerated Program - There is also the option to do an accelerated program if you have time constraints. This option can be very intense and may not be the best choice for many candidates. 

Part-time Program - You also have the option to enroll in the Part-time Career Development program to complete your courses in your own time. This is great for people who have a job and can only commit part-time, but this also means that it will take you longer to complete the program and become a dive professional.
