Discover Scuba School Program

istock_9What is the AUC's "Discover Scuba Program for Schools/Youths"?

The "Discover Scuba School Program" is designed as an introductory session of the rapidly growing activity of Scuba Diving for Alberta school/youth groups. During these pool sessions (usually arranged by teachers/group leaders) the students will learn the basic techniques of Scuba Diving and will have a hands-on experience scuba diving in a pool. This exciting program has been used to enrich the physical education program curriculum in schools from all regions in the province of Alberta for 20 years now with safe participation of nearly 20,000 students.  See here for answers to most of your FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) about this program!

Forms/Waivers to Complete?

You'll need to esnure that a Discover Scuba Liability Form is to be filled out and signed by each student participant and their parent/guardian prior to the event. Please give these completed forms to the Instructor at the event or forward to the AUC office as soon as possible afterwards.
