One Dive Family

Uniting Our Diving Activities Under SDI

Since 1994, International Training has operated with one core commitment—safety, quality, and innovation in diving education. With the creation of Technical Diving International (TDI), we set a new standard for training technical divers. In the years since, we have proved that if you can train technical divers to safely operate in the most extreme and demanding environments, you can elevate safety for every other diving discipline. What we’ve learned through TDI has shaped the way we approach diving instruction across all levels. Now, we are taking the next step in our journey by unifying all our diving activities under a single umbrella brand, Scuba Diving International (SDI), through the One Dive Family campaign.

This unification allows us to better communicate who we are, what we stand for, and how our shared values, first introduced with TDI, continue to guide everything we do across all disciplines of diving.

Since our founding, we have operated under the same core values of safety, quality, and innovation. These principles were first introduced with TDI, where we pioneered technical diving education and set the gold standard in the industry. TDI’s expertise and leadership in training technical divers laid the foundation for everything we do today. Whether you’re a recreational diver, a freediver, or a public safety professional, you have been benefiting from the same standards that have guided TDI from the very beginning.

By unifying all diving activities under SDI, we are aligning our brand to better reflect the values that have always been at our core. This evolution brings clarity to our brand while maintaining the credibility we have built over the last three decades. With One Dive Family, we recognize that the same values of safety and innovation apply to every diver, no matter their discipline or experience level.

A Family of Diving Specialties

Under the SDI umbrella, we bring together a unique family of diving specialties, each contributing to the broader diving experience while maintaining its distinct focus. Whether you’re a recreational diver seeking adventure, a technical diver exploring deep or hazardous environments with TDI, performing crucial underwater operations as a public safety diver with ERDI, or pushing the boundaries of breath control and performance with PFI, you are part of the same family. By aligning all these specialties under one unified brand, we strengthen the connections between disciplines while preserving their unique expertise.

This unity ensures that every diver benefits from the highest standards of safety, no matter what kind of diving they pursue. Our focus on specialized training has always been what sets us apart, and this unification strengthens that commitment.
