There are numerous certification agencies available to get certified from: NAUI, PADI, SSI, BSAC, CMAS, PDIC, SDI, and the alphabet soup goes on and on.
Yet after years of teaching, we have found that NAUI standards and policy of academic freedom is the best fit for divers that truly want to master the skills necessary to be safe, competent, confident, capable divers. This assures that upon certification you are comfortable in the water, can enjoy diving, and will develop a strong desire to continue learning more.
