Company description In 1984, Pro Dive established our Scuba Career Development Program and the operation became one of PADI’s first Instructor Development Centers. In order to fulfill the specific hiring demands of dive resort operators, Pro Dive expanded the scope of their Scuba Career Training and developed and copyrighted the industry’s first Resort Operations Specialist (ROS®) program.
Greg and his staff have always been strongly committed to providing valuable, comprehensive, professional dive training to those wishing to pursue a career in diving. As a result, Pro Dive received an “Outstanding Achievement Award” for valuable contributions to PADI Instructor Development, and in 1996 was very proud to be awarded as PADI’s first ever Career Development Center in the world!
In 1998 PADI Headquarters recognized Pro Dive as “the most chosen PADI Career Development Center in the U.S.A.”
To show their deep appreciation for his leadership, the Pro Dive family has dedicated a favorite Fort Lauderdale coral reef site to the memory of Greg and Loren. The reef has been renamed Mackay’s Reef and a commemorative plaque is being placed underwater to honor their great achievements. Several times per week, Pro Dive’s Glassbottom Boat Tours and Snorkeling Excursions visit Mackay’s Reef.
We remain comitted to providing high quality, comprehensive dive training on a continuous basis year round. These are the programs that have earned us our outstanding reputation as dive industry educators.
We provide the best job placement program in the industry and we back it up with our exclusive Job Placement Pledge.
And Pro Dive still remains “the most chosen PADI Career Development Center in the United States!”
Pro Dive will move into the future by adhering to the same philosophy that has led to our success. We will continue to develop and offer additional training programs in order to stay at the forefront of the ever-evolving scuba diving industry. We will stay dedicated to designing programs that will better prepare instructors for the job functions they will encounter when entering into a diving career.
Our core management staff was hired by Greg and has years of experience working under his guidance and functioning as an executive committee for him. The longevity of these key individuals and the close working relationship they enjoyed with Greg has afforded them the ability to share his vision for the future of Pro Dive.
Greg Mackay not only built a successful business over the years, but he also established the Pro Dive family, which is truly devoted to keeping his legacy alive!
