Dive Planning & Marshalling

[nick kay]

Does anyone have Instructor Notes, Lectures, etc. for DPM on electronic media?

More specifically, does anyone have DPM lectures on powerpoint?

According to BSAC HQ, the only Instructor resouces available are held within the "old" silver/grey Instructor manual (1994?)

Any/all help greatfully recd

Thanks in advance...

Hello Nick
There are two versions of the lectures on the dive instruct web site, as detailed in the other reply. The presentations are both very good but I would recommend reading through them before you use, (as I am sure you would have done anyway,) there is a lot of repeated info and a little over emphasis on some parts at the cost of other parts. The use of them with the instructor notes in the silver handbook should give you a good grounding.
DPM is one of the SDC?s which as it is covered in the new DTP may fall along the way side in the due course of time. In case there is still interest in future I have spoken to the BSAC with a view to updating both the presentation media and the instructor/student notes. It is a work in progress I am afraid, made a little longer in its inception by the arrival of my first child. I am hoping to get it to press before the next regional DPM course here in Yorkshire in September.
On a similar vein if anyone reading this thread has any suggestions please feel free to email me or contribute on here, if Nick doesn't mind me 'hijacking his thread'.

Hi All
If you email me your address i will send you an up to date copy of the DPM as the silver notes go with it. which you will still need to read and change for yourself.
