PADI and National Geographic

PADI and National Geographic Renew PADI National Geographic Diver Program
RANCHO SANTA MARGARITA, CA – 16 December 2009 --
Extending their commitment to the popular PADI National Geographic Diver program and support for PADI National Geographic Dive Centers, PADI and National Geographic have renewed the program agreement through 31 December 2011.
The PADI National Geographic Diver program combines the PADI Open Water Diver course with National Geographic specific content in special PADI National Geographic Diver course materials.
Since 2003, PADI is the only international training organization to work closely with National Geographic to provide such training, as well as a network of PADI and National Geographic Dive Centers around the globe.
“We’re committed to continuing this relationship with National Geographic,” said PADI President and COO Drew Richardson, “because the PADI National Geographic Diver program establishes an explorer-scientist mindset. It’s a great way to start out in diving, it gives people reasons to keep diving, and it brings new faces into PADI National Geographic Dive Centers.”
For more information about the PADI National Geographic Diver program, contact PADI Nordic or Regional Manager, Mikael Mox Moberg.
Others promise … PADI delivers.
