- A Level 5 Diver with 100 dives is eligible for the Century Diver recognition card.
- The Gold 500 Diver is a Level 9 Diver with 500 recorded dives.
- The Platinum 1000 Diver has reached Level 10 and the 1,000 dive mark.
- The highest honor, the Platinum Pro 5000 Diver, is reserved for divers that have reached the pro level and surpassed 5,000 dives. A small, but very special group of divers around the world have the privilege to carry the SSI Platinum Pro 5000 Diver Card - the highest recognition level in the diving industry. This group is comprised of the "who's who" of the diving world.Visit the Platinum Pro foundation's website to learn more about the Platinum Pro 5000 Diver Award and see the list of award winners
