Personalized courses: Why?

“Your instructor takes the time to take care of you, at your own pace, in restraint group or with our PDP (Personalized Development Program) course leading you, student, to the highest level of training. A new diver, like an experienced diver, needs practice and repetition to become a safe and confident diver. So, less practice should not be permitted.”
