CMAS AMERICAS Mission

Our mission is to develop and promote CMAS diving programs in the US, English Canada, Central America and the Caribbean. CMAS programs are based on a system teaching and mentoring that when combined produce divers who are superior in knowledge, skills and abilities. As a result of this comprehensive training, CMAS divers are not only safe and competent in the water, but also more appreciative of the marine environment.
