- Only an active SDFS Instructor can certify a SDFS/CMAS diving level and always through a Seychellois SDFS school.
- Annual member fees could be applied.
- Only an SDFS member can participate in the diving courses.
- If a new diver, the first step is to subscribe as an SDFS member.
- To start a SDFS/CMAS course, the instructor communicates his intentions to the federation and waits for SDFS to accept.
- The federation could directly supervise the course to verify that the instructor meets all the standards.
- After completing the course, the instructor must communicate the result to the federation within a maximum period of 10 days.
- The federation will register the new certification within 15 days of receipt of the results.
- The 1, 2, 3, 4 star diver certification cards and the 1, 2, 3 star instructor certification cards will be printed once certification is registered. Other diving levels may take up to 30 days.
- Our certifications do not expire, but to request any service from the federation, the applicant must be up to date with the annual fee payment.
