SSI Diving Certification Agencies

Scuba Schools International (SSI) is a very much smaller certification agency. All SSI instructors are affiliated to an authorized dealer and unlike other agencies; instructors are not allowed to operate independently, this combined with the small size of SSI limits the opertunities of divemasters and instructors. SSI basic beginner's course, open water diver, is similar to those offered by the main agencies.

SSI & PADI jointly combined in their efforts, have played a major role in making scuba diving a popular recreational activity.
