Diver Education

Courses & Training

We offer a range of courses on specialist topics in diving that every diver can benefit from. For example, psychological theory in scuba diving, diver anxiety & panic, and "invisible" skills such as mental rehearsal. We also offer courses in mental health & wellbeing. Our most recent development is "ScubaFlex" in which divers learn to apply evidenced-based behaviour theory to become more flexible, resilient divers.
