Private and Independent Instruction

Scuba Certification and Refresher Courses

Portland, Vancouver, and the Pacific Northwest

My program offers unique and individual instruction based on the student's needs, not the instructor's. Too many shops and many instructors teach exactly the same way for every student. They claim consistency is productivity. It is not. It's the easiest way to cycle the grestest numbers of students through a program in the shortest amont of time.

"It makes no sense to expect all students to take the same amount of time to achieve the same objectives."
                             --Benjamin Bloom
