SCUBA SCHOOLS INTERNATIONAL

There are many organizations that can train and certify divers.

What you want is an internationally recognized certification that will be accepted in any diving center, anywhere in the world and that will allow you to dive and continue your studies with any other diving agency.

​

At French Touch Diving, we prefer to teach mainly SSI, a world renowned diving association created in 1970, promoting the teaching of scuba diving. The main diving agencies are SSI, PADI, BSAC, RAID, TDI, and FFESSM. These agencies are all international and are part of the WRSTC (World Recreational Scuba Training Council), an organization that regulates standards around the world.

​

Many people think that PADI is the only way because it is the best known, but it is only one more agency and no more recognized than others in the WRSTC. We were PADI divers and instructors ourselves for more than 8 years, and made the choice to change to SSI, whose standards and specialties are similar to those of PADI, but SSI offers much better teaching materials.

​

At French Touch Diving, we want to give the best value to our training and we are always moving forward to ensure that our training is the best for students and instructors. This means that we use the best learning systems and equipment to teach you scuba diving.

​

In simple terms, the certification you will receive from French Touch Diving will be valid in any diving center, in any country in the world, including France, and you can change agencies if you want!
