Already a dive shop and interested in offering BSAC courses? Want to make the sport you love your job too?

Our ethos is to create more scuba divers and get people diving in the UK and worldwide. BSAC Centres can offer a faster route for people to get scuba qualified, whether they want to travel and train on holiday or find their local dive centre in the UK.

By becoming a BSAC centre you'll be training people to become highly competent self-reliant divers with excellent practical, theory and safety skills. Safety is at the core of BSAC training and you'll be delivering training and developing divers to dive within the standards of the Safe Diving Guide.
