We are only a little over halfway through the year, and our Dive into Science participants have already completed more than 300 dives!⁠
⁠
Our cohorts in California are working hard to complete required continuing education courses so they can participate in Reef Check and AAUS Scientific Diver training later this year.⁠
⁠
With this experience, each diver is gaining scientific diving skills, ecological knowledge, and hands-on experience that will strengthen community stewardship and support greater Tribal participation in marine science and conservation for years to come.⁠
⁠
Check out more details about the program on our website.⁠
