TESTIMONIAL
"Dive safety comes down to the choices you and your team make every time you plan to execute a dive. The program acts like powerful computing software, synthesizing 'everything but the gear' into the most relevant components, so you can spend your time reflecting on your own, or your teams', dive practice. The trainer listened and considered ideas that come up in class and modelled the behaviors you need to build a better team. You could see the outcomes of their teaching and modelling in the group. That is the best representation of what you can do with what you learn in the program."
