Who We Are
We are champions of dive safety, advocating for best practices throughout the dive industry and empowering divers to make smart decisions on every adventure. We prepare and support the diving community through emergency response training, safety education and engagement with the world’s leading experts.
We are researchers, exploring new areas of study as our community seeks to dive deeper, longer and in more remote locations. Divers continue to push the boundaries of our understanding of the underwater world and stretch the limits of human physiology, and we collaborate with esteemed scientists to ensure the safety of these pioneers. We are researchers, medics and dive professionals who have come together with the singular mission of supporting the safe exploration of our underwater world.
We are your trusted advisors — the experts you call when you are uncertain. Whether you’re looking for an answer to a simple question or need assistance with a medical emergency in progress, we are always here for you. We are a nonprofit organization built to support divers with health and safety information, medical consultations, industry-leading dive accident insurance and travel insurance programs.
We are supported by you, our members: the community we work to protect.
