NAUI Worldwide Member
NAUI Worldwide is the most respected and largest non-profit diver training organization in the world. Established in 1959 as a membership association and organized solely to support and promote Dive Safety Through Education, NAUI continues as the recognized leader in innovative education.
NAUI’s global reputation for the best in training and educational products reflects its core values of quality dive training through education. Many organizations specifically choose NAUI for their diver education programs including Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando, Florida, United States Navy SEAL Teams and NASA’s Neutral Buoyancy Laboratory in Houston, Texas (USA) where astronauts train for their space walks.
"For some time there has been a concern among many members of the dive industry that training standards have been in serious decline since New Zealand started funneling huge numbers of new dive leaders through 'zero-to-hero' tertiary courses that make impressive promises but offer little in the way of safe, quality leadership education." says Chris Munday, Director of SubAqua. "The re-introduction of NAUI to the choices offered to student divers gives us a strong chance to reverse that decline, and provide much safer choices to New Zealand divers."
“Dive Safety Through Education” is more than a motto; it is the philosophy behind NAUI Worldwide. Since its inception in 1959, NAUI has been dedicated to providing the most comprehensive and safest diver training available in the world, and will continue to be the logical agency of choice among divers who desire a quality education.
NAUI has many independent instructors and diver training agents throughout New Zealand. SubAqua will ensure NAUI diver education systems are available to existing dive stores immediately from April 01, 2010. More information for students, instructors and dive centres can be obtained by visiting www.subaqua.co.nz, or contacting the distribution and training team on 07-571 5286.
