Who is responsible for the online education bit of the BSAC website - I've had a number of comments from trainees that the 'correct' answers contradict what I've told them - and they do. Apparantely, for example, the BSAC ocean diver award is still only awarded by BSAC schools. Could these self-tests be updated???

I'm just taking this opportunity to bring this topic back to the top of the page.
I had the usual quiet response to my last request but, who knows, with the cold winter months ahead there may be some opportunities for some volunteers to come forward.

Hey ho.

I'm currently working on a series of questions relating to the '88 tables, with interactive correction and examples, for my branch. Once finished, I shall happily supply them to you should you wish to integrate them into the BSAC website. I use PHP and Javascript for authoring, as I'm familiar with them. Is that useable on the BSAC server? Currently quite busy, so might take me a while.

Will happily work on some 'self test' type questions, but would be rather more keen to work on a kind of 'diving knowledge base'.
