Cavern, Basic Cave/Intro to Cave Diver Course Fees

All Cavern and Basic/Intro to Cave courses I offer are taught in affiliation with Ginnie Springs Outdoors. As one of two Ginnie Springs’ independent instructors, I am able to offer the advantage of a course fee which includes Ginnie Springs’ site admission fees ($30.00 per day, plus tax) and air fills ($5 per fill).

Course fees for Cavern and Basic Cave/Intro to Cave Diver are:

Course	1 Student	2 Students	3 or More
Cavern Diver (2 Days)	$350	$300	$250
Basic/Intro to Cave (2 Days)	$350	$300	$250

Course fees include:

Ginnie Springs' site admission fees.
Air fills.

The cost of the NACD Student Workbook (Cavern to Full Cave) and certification through NSS-CDS, NACD and/or PADI is not included. Be sure to see deposit requirements at the bottom of this page.

Payment Requirements

A non-refundable deposit of at least $100 (subject to the terms of the Student-Instructor Agreement) is due within seven days of scheduling a course in order to hold that course open. Deposits may be paid by personal check, bank check or money order.
Course fee balances are to be paid directly to the instructor, in cash, at the beginning of each course and do not include site admission fees, air fills, student workbooks or certification processing fees.
You may either designate the course as "private" or request that additional students, if available at the time requested, be added so as to reduce your course cost.

You may also pay for your training using your major credit card or checking account.

For all training other than Cavern and Basic/Intro to Cave, please download and review the sample Student-Instructor Agreement in Adobe Acrobat Portable Document Format (PDF; 1 page; 31K). Once a specific date for training has been set, I will send you a completed Agreement for you to sign and return to me. Your class will be reserved upon my receipt of your deposit and signed Student-Instructor Agreement.
