On November 20, 2014 the first formal meeting of the Rebreather Training Council (RTC) was held in Las Vegas, USA.

The founding member organizations were:

ANDI

GUE

IANTD

IART

NAUI

PADI

PSAI

RAID

SSI

TDI

The RTC has been formed to allow leading training agencies that offer rebreather training to work together and exchange information.  The mission of the RTC is to promote the safe use of rebreathers by creating industry agreed training standards and operational protocols. These standards and protocols will be updated and amended as needed to reflect the evolving state of the art and best practices available.

The RTC expects to work closely with the Rebreather Education and Safety Association (RESA) so that training organizations and manufacturers can cooperate for the benefit of rebreather divers globally.
