UTD Teaching Philosophy

UTD International teaches the principles of a unified
team approach in:

• The Core Principles
• Knowledge base (Classroom materials)
• Equipment configuration
• In-water Skills and methodology
• Diving practices

UTD International philosophy was born in the UTD/DIR/Hogathian equipment configuration and diving principles, but goes above and beyond by incorporating many of the in-water skills and techniques from cave, wreck and tech diving. UTD International has continued to develop and refine these skills and principles through the years. This combination formulates the highest set of unified team diving principles and standards that has convents and suggestions for the divers alike, to apply to their diving and dive within a Unified Team.
