PADI eLearning® Forums Prepare Members for New Market
Rancho Santa Margarita, CA – 28 March 2007 – In yet another aggressive move supporting
PADI Members and industry growth, PADI has scheduled a series of 26 eLearning Forums
in the United States and Canada prior to the launch of PADI’s Open Water Diver Course
Online in May 2007. PADI’s eLearning Forum helps answer the what and the how of
eLearning, arming members with the tools and knowledge they need to easily integrate
this exciting new program into their existing business model.
“The success of eLearning depends on the support of the PADI Membership,” says Drew
Richardson, President and Chief Operating Officer of PADI Worldwide. “PADI Members
are integral to the eLearner’s positive experience and PADI is committed to unveiling
this program and answering questions before customers start calling their PADI Dive
Center or Resort.”
PADI’s aggressive eLearning Forum schedule offers 26 forums over a two-week period.
And true to Assignment Member First - a member-centric philosophy that underpins
all business decisions - PADI Americas has dedicated major resources to make this
happen and prepare members to receive this untapped market.
PADI’s eLearning Forum promises to answer PADI Members’ most pressing questions:
- What is PADI eLearning and what does it look like?
- How will PADI eLearning benefit my business?
- How will student divers find my business?
- How much does it cost and how much will I make?
- How do I integrate PADI eLearning into my training program?
- How can I track a PADI eLearner’s course progress?
- How can I build a relationship with student divers online?
- How can I market PADI eLearning?
