NAUI Scores the US Coast Guard

NAUI and Atlantis Divers is pleased to announce the acceptance of our First Aid Training Course by the United States Coast Guard. This is in addition to meeting International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation (ILCOR) recommendations.

Shortly after the publication of our First Aid Textbook and Instructor Guide, we submitted our instructional materials to the United States Coast Guard for their review and possible recognition and approval. We have just received a letter from their Training and Assessment Division accepting our course. The letter states that our course meets or exceeds the standards of the American Red Cross Standard First Aid and Emergency Care or Multimedia Standard First Aid and will satisfy the first aid training requirements of 46 CFR 10.205(h)(1)(iii) for a merchant mariner license.

Sat, 26 May 2007 22:02:00 GMT

The approval is effective June 1, 2007. We are elated that the quality and thoroughness of our new first aid course has warranted this recognition by the USCG. Once again, NAUI is recognized as a leader in education, training and safety in the industry.

This new First Aid Training Course trains community members, divers, and leaders in the knowledge and skills needed to render emergency care at the scene of an accident or respond to an emergency. NAUI course graduates are considered competent to perform consistent with the level of training completed.
