Tampa, Fla. (April 22, 2019) – The National Association of Underwater Instructors (NAUI) Worldwide returns to California’s Long Beach Convention Center on May 4-5, 2019, for the annual Scuba Show, booth #503.

The Scuba Show is California’s premier diving event of the year featuring 76,000 square feet of exhibit space, 300+ exhibitors, seminars, clinics hosted by industry experts, a 15,000-gallon heated pool, and more.

Held in conjunction with the event is the NAUI First Aid Instructor Workshop and NAUI IT/CD/CDT Requalification Workshop, both held inside the Long Beach Convention Center. NAUI leadership is excited to use this event as a platform to spread NAUI’s mission of “Dive Safety Through Education” and to ensure that individuals receive the most current and safest instruction available.

The two-day NAUI First Aid Instructor Workshop (FAIW) is scheduled for May 2nd through 3rd and is designed for any NAUI Leader (Assistant Instructor, Skin Diving Instructor, Divemaster, Instructor) who wishes to teach the NAUI First Aid – Powered by DAN courses. Attendees can expect to refresh their First Aid and CPR skills, valuable information concerning new First Aid standards, as well as information on training and how to implement and conduct these courses themselves.
