International Scuba Certification

Founded on Experience.

ISC can trace it roots back to 1973 when Founder Russell de Groot became the 2nd PADI Course Director in Australia, and Barry Coleman who founded RAID and pioneered much of the training in Rebreathers and technical diving.

With this mix of experience, International Scuba Certification was developed with practical outcome based training standard exceeding ISO standards while providing a framework for Dive Professionals and Dive Centres to join ISC.
