STEPDive, NAUI Release Young Divers Training Product

-

NAUI and STEPDive have teamed up to create a new product to revolutionize dive training for younger divers.

The idea is based on the concept of progressive depths, and the book series is titled “Experience Before Depth.”

The three-book series is designed to educate, inspire and teach younger divers safe core scuba skills. These can be done in shallow water before being taken gradually deeper into deeper waters. The three books in the series are as follows:

  • STEPSurface: Offers a starting point and focuses on the basics of diving and comfort in the water.
  • STEPUndersea: The second book takes their learning a little further and dives into more techniques like ascents and equalization.
  • STEPDiver: The final book prepares divers for an underwater adventure and learning about skills like buoyancy, dive planning, and even gas management.

An eLearning course will also be launched to complement the books and offer diverse interactive online training.

Commenting on the new books, NAUI HQ Vice President of Operations & Training Director Terrence Tysall stated:

“We are delighted to cooperate with STEPDive to create a unique educational experience for young divers. These resources will not only inspire a love for diving but also instill essential safety skills from an early age.”

While STEPDive Founder and CEO Tiemen Van Dillen added:

“Combining our innovative approach with NAUI’s expertise and network allows us to offer unparalleled learning opportunities worldwide. We are excited to see the impact of these books and courses on the next generation of divers.”

To celebrate the launch, the first book, STEPSurface, is being offered as a free downloadable PDF for a limited time. Additionally, both print and digital editions of the entire series are available at promotional prices on Amazon. This special offer is designed to make high-quality dive training resources accessible to as many young divers as possible. You can find the links to buy the books through howto.stepdive.com/buythebooks.
