In this edition:
Congratulations! Congratulations to Rick for completing his DAN Oxygen Provider course and renewing his EFR. Rick will be taking the EFR Instructor course soon. Congratulations to Terry & Cody who recently completed their PADI Instructor Exam (IE). Terry and Cody were both candidates in an IDC I staffed in Boise earlier this year.  DAN Online Oxygen Provider course DAN has released an online knowledge development for their Oxygen First Aid for Scuba program. Now, you can complete the knowledge development prior to class, leaving more class time for skills practice. Some of the benefits include color graphics, interactive knowledge assessment and the luxury of being able to complete it at your own pace. You'll still receive a manual and will still take the exam. Contact me today to sign up for this course. You'll also receive a PADI Distinctive Specialty certification, which can count towards your Master Scuba Diver rating!

DAN BLSPro I recently completed instructor training for the DAN BLS Pro course. BLSPro is a basic life support program for dive professionals and others interested in developing their BLS skills to a healthcare-provider level. Two-person CPR, suctioning and using a bag-valve mask are some of the skills included in the program. Since we often dive a substantial distance from EMS, this is an ideal program for Diving Professionals (Divemasters, Instructors). You can learn more about the program here: DAN BLSPro Contact me to schedule & sign up for BLSPro. Upcoming Diving Courses June: Adventure Diver, Advanced Open Water and Specialties I just purchased a DPV (Diver Propulsion Vehicle) and let me tell you--it's a scream to ride. I spent an hour in the pool at Dive Utah playing around with it. I'll be offering the DPV Adventure Dive in June as part of Adventure Diver and Advanced Open Water Diver training.  IYOR International Year of the Reef 2008 has been designated the International Year of the Reef. This is a great time to take the Project AWARE and AWARE Coral Reef Conservation Specialties.
