Definition: This term is usually used by dive professionals to describe a dive undertaken by a certified diver. This is as opposed to a training dive for a student diver. The term can be a little confusing for a recreational diver but is very common amongst professionals.

Examples: The Divemaster will lead the two certified divers on a fun dive.
