We care more about our members and developing higher training & certification standards, than our bottom line! We DO NOT spend millions $$$ on marketing each year...

Compare us with IANTD / TDI
ITDA began as a Technical training agency back in 1998 in the UK and Spain (Canary Is) and developed our SCUBA training by popular demand from our professionals who wanted a higher standard for divers to progress from Scuba to Technical diving.
