Scuba Educators is a scuba diving certification agency whose roots stem from the YMCA scuba and skin diving program. In 2008, a group of former YSCUBA instructors Ken Nemeth, Dan Marelli and Tom Leaird banded together to create Scuba Educators – a new high standard scuba education agency with no connection to the YMCA. In 2011 the agency further expanded by purchasing and merging with the first SCUBA instructors college in the United States, the Professional Diving Instructors College (PDIC).
As a continuation of their dedication to quality scuba education, Tom Leaird now serves as Scuba Educators Director of Education alongside President Ben Brown and Vice President Cam Byrd. Scuba Educators specializes in supporting independent instructors. Email [email protected] to find out how they help instructors worldwide teach at a high level while keeping fees low.

While GlassSipper started as an artistic hobby turned career, the increasing problem of single-use plastic has committed the BC couple to rid the world of plastic straws and replacing them with fun, reusable and environmentally friendly ones. GlassSipper’s glass straws are made from natural silica making them non-toxic and eco-friendly.
