Why use a registration form
A reservation name does not show certification, rental needs, or an emergency contact. Structured answers help staff prepare the roster.
Separate agency, level, number, last-dive, and logged-dive fields are easy to review.
Show qualification, rental, and buddy follow-ups only when the diver's choices make them relevant.
Filter by trip, session, rentals, or review status instead of merging emails and handwritten notes.
Built around the dive
Replace the sample choices with your destinations, sessions, course levels, and equipment.
Trip, experience, rental, dietary, and emergency contact fields.
Member signup with certification, buddy, and transport details.
Course, prior certification, date, sizing, and accessibility fields.
Qualification questions that change with activity choices.
Registration workflow
Generate, refine, publish, and route registrations to the team preparing the dive.
Name the activity, audience, choices, and registration details you need.
Add your agencies, dates, sites, and rentals, then condition the follow-ups.
Share it by email, event page, or QR code for completion before arrival.
Route records, tag entries needing review, and organize rentals before check-in.
Form vs email vs generic signup
Keep core questions consistent and show activity-specific follow-ups only when relevant.

Certification
Separate agency, level, number, last dive, and logged-dive fields help staff apply your participation criteria.
Activity choices
Use controlled trip, course, time-slot, or workshop choices, with conditional follow-ups for each activity.
Equipment
If rentals are needed, show item and size fields for your actual inventory plus a special-request note.
Buddy and logistics
Reveal buddy-name fields when needed, then add arrival, transport, accessibility, or dietary questions relevant to the event.
Emergency contact
Collect contact name, relationship, and phone. Explain the purpose and limit access under your handling practices.
