Consumer Protection

NAUI Consumer Protection Program

NAUI is dedicated to delivering the highest quality diver training worldwide. To uphold this commitment, we use diverse methodologies to ensure that NAUI standards are consistently met in all instructional settings. We actively oversee and share quality assurance findings, along with an updated list of NAUI-affiliated individuals who are currently not authorized to teach NAUI courses or issue NAUI certifications. This may include individuals who are under sanction, suspension, or have been expelled from our organization.
