Module four is scheduled for launch in December this year.


The number of users has grown from the initial 250 at launch (early April) to more than 850 Diving Supervisors.


Bryan McGlinchy, IMCA’s Diving Manager said: “We have certainly seen a lot of interest in recent months however we recognise there is work to be done in increasing acceptance of the system around the world especially in areas where the uptake has so far been slow, such as in India, the Middle East and Asia.


“We are hoping to have 1,000 users by the end of the year and I strongly encourage any supervisors who haven’t yet registered to take the opportunity to do so now before the system becomes mandatory in 2021.”
