perform as a training assistant during diver training sessions. The key
objective is to train divers to assist others during training activities
overseen by an active-status NAUI Instructor. This course is to enhance the
diver’s general skills and abilities and is not a substitute for specific
NAUI courses which create NAUI leadership members. Although this course
results in certification as a Training Assistant it does not confer any
NAUI Leadership certification nor does it qualify the graduate to apply for
or receive the benefits of NAUI membership. Consequently, this
certification does not allow the graduate to be counted toward student
instructor ratios
