The World Organisation of Scuba Diving (WOSD) was setup in 2005 in order to develop a new innovative method for conducting diver training, which would bring the international (diving) industry to a higher level by using modern tools and techniques.This starts with the way courses are taught. Traditional (diver) training courses often require a trainee to learn from a book in a classroom, with an instructor who simply repeats what they have already read in the book several times at home. These systems do not utilise modern multi-media materials or allow flexible self-study. All WOSD courses are based on the so-called "Digital Learning System" or "D-learning". When a trainee decides to follow a D-Learning course, they receive a multi-media package, which they then use in their own time to achieve the leaning objective. The trainee studies in the comfort of their own home at the times that they choose. D-learning provides the trainee with the ultimate level of flexibility in their study, learning completely in their own time and manner. Progress can be checked at any time through a series of self-tests via Internet. Any questions can be sent by email to the trainee's Dive Centre or Instructor. Once the required level of knowledge has been attained, the trainee can complete a final exam at the Dive Centre or with a Dive Instructor and then go diving. In this way, the trainee can experience the incredible feeling of breathing underwater in a very different world, far sooner and easier than was previously possible. The WOSD 'D-learning' system removes the barriers that have previously prevented many people from learning to dive and enjoying the wonders that mother nature has created underwater.For more information or to contact the WOSD, a WOSD centre or a WOSD Instructor, please refer to www.wosd.com.
