College Credit Recommendations
For SSI Dive Courses

 

The American Council of Education (ACE) recommends college credit for certain SSI scuba diver and Emergency First Response (EFR) courses. ACE represents all colleges and universities before the U.S. federal government and as such is the unified voice of higher education. ACE evaluates educational courses according to established college-level criteria and recommends college credit for those that measure up to these standards.

The ACE credit recommendations for SSI and EFR courses may help you in receiving college credit at an America university or college - even if the courses aren't conducted on a university or college campus. Courses offered through SSI Dive Centers, Resorts and at other locations qualify.

TAKE A COURSE - USE THE CREDIT
A university or college may use the ACE credit recommendations in a variety of ways. The institution may apply the credit to your major replacing a required course. They may also use the credit as a general elective to possibly waive a prerequisite course.

COLLEGE CREDIT AT NO
EXTRA CHARGE
Universities and colleges that accept ACE credit recommendations for SSI or EFR courses typically handle them like transfer credit. Transfer credit is often awarded without an additional fee. This may save you tuition fees while at the same time allowing you to possibly meet graduation requirements.

 

ORDERING AN OFFICIAL SSI TRANSCRIPT
To secure credit for a SSI or EFR course at a college or university, you need an official transcript as proof of course completion. Colleges and universities will not accept certification cards or wall certificates as proof of course completion. SSI will send your transcript directly to you or the college or university you are currently attending or planning to attend. It is recommended that you also order a transcript for your own records. To order an official transcript, complete the application and enclose the indicated processing fee.

Note: Please contact your college or university before applying for credit to see if credit is accepted at the institution. Some institutions may not accept SSI course.
