SDI: Scuba Diving International

Scuba Diving International

SDI - Scuba Diving International is a scuba diving learning and certification agency.

Simply Scuba - online Scuba shop

It is the recreational arm of Technical Diving International, the world’s largest technical diver learning and training organization. Scuba Diving International is the only diver training agency that requires students to have access to a modern dive computer on all dives during training from the very start.

The Scuba Diving International Open Water Scuba Diver course is an entry-level certification course designed to give you the necessary skills to safely conduct open water dives. Some of the many skills you will learn include buoyancy, proper weighting, marine conservation, equipment assembly, proper dive planning, and maintenance. The course covers all the basic international knowledge about equipment, physiology and the marine environment while training students to perform basic skills underwater. This course is the key to start exploring dive destinations around the globe or just in your backyard.

SDI is also unique amongst recreational diver training organisations in that it recognises solo diving as part of recreational diving, and offers a special training course relating to it. Every other major recreational diver training organisation mandates diving with a "buddy" at all times.

Scuba Diving International is a member of The World Recreational Scuba Training Council. Among the things that make Scuba Diving International different:

• Believes that training should reflect the equipment technology real-world divers actually use, and the procedures they actually follow.

• Training reflects not only our unparalleled experience in technical diving, but also our extensive experience as dive store and resort operators, and dive boat captains.

• Also embraces the latest technology to make learning dive as easy and enjoyable as possible.

• Was the first diver training organization that made it possible for entry-level students to complete all of their academic training online.

• Is the only organization that requires its stores and instructors to make personal dive computers available to students on all training dives.
