Quicksilver Dive’s Port Douglas Training Centre has been recognised for “Outstanding Contribution to Diver Training” by PADI, the world’s largest dive training organisation’s annual Outstanding Contribution Awards.
The Outstanding Contribution to Diver Training by PADI recognises Quicksilver Dive’s high standards of diver education including adaptive techniques, and growth in certifications.
Tony Baker, Quicksilver Group Managing Director said, “This is a wonderful acknowledgement to Quicksilver Dive’s team of instructors and the calibre of training they consistently deliver. This award also acknowledges last year’s achievement of becoming the first PADI Adaptive Service Facility in Queensland, opening up the world of scuba to people with special needs. The whole team are to be congratulated for a truly progressive and safe learning environment for diver education.”
PADI Regional Manager Australia, Annie Halloran said, “Quicksilver Dive was honoured with the Outstanding Contribution Award for Diver Training in 2023, achieving a remarkable 47% increase in certifications and becoming one of Australia’s pioneering Adaptive Techniques Centres. This exceptional performance led us to recognise Quicksilver Dive with this prestigious accolade.”
“The Outstanding Contribution Awards are presented annually and are reserved for select PADI Retail and Resort Association Members in each region who have demonstrated exceptional contributions to the industry. “
Chris Snel, Quicksilver Dive School Operations Manager said, “We strive for quality education for all levels of diver training - not only for entry level such as Open Water Divers and Discover Scuba Divers, but also Rescue Divers and Dive Masters.
Our instructors are dedicated to delivering the highest possible education so our students feel confident about their achievements. We are honoured to be recognised by PADI with this award and will continue to develop our team and deliver life-changing achievements for our students.”
