A school of enthusiasts

When the founders of EPSO decided to take the next step, diving in the Outaouais had no school to train instructors in scuba diving. The instructors in our area were part of the old school without any plan to innovate. We have dedicated our efforts to change this conservative atmosphere and to innovate so that divers thrive. We are proud to have succeeded where no one else has in our region!

The ultimate goal for us is to share our passion. To achieve this, EPSO had to innovate and create its own instructors by becoming the first PADI 5-star IDC diving center in the Outaouais region. The title of 5-star PADI dive center is not awarded easily. It took a few years to flourish and meet the requirements of PADI. With hard work and the help of divers willing to surpass themselves, we got there.

Here is a list of achievements we are proud to have accomplished.

• The only 5-star dive center in Outaouais
• The first and still the only dive center to offer specialized gas
• The only dive center offering training at the Gatineau Sports Center
• The only dive center offering introductions to our youth masses in the region
  
• The only dive center to support technical diving in Outaouais
• The only dive center to produce membrane enriched air in Gatineau
• The largest community of divers in the Outaouais
• The only center with free diving outings every week during the season (we go beyond the season too)
• The only dive center to have its own commercial dive charter boat for 12 divers
• The only center to offer TEC training in Outaouais
• The only dive center that supports Rebreather technology
• The only dive center with a complete repair center in Outaouais

At the time of this writing, several other scoops have been completed by the EPSO team..
