Recreational diving services - Requirements for introductory programmes to scuba diving (ISO 11121:2017)

This International Standard specifies minimum requirements for training organizations that offer introductory
scuba experience training programmes to individuals without prior diver training.
This International Standard applies to programmes that include participants being taken into an open water
environment. It does not apply to programmes that are exclusively conducted in a confined water environment
(e.g. swimming pools).
This International Standard also specifies the conditions under which this service is to be provided, which
supplement the general requirements for recreational diving services specified in ISO 24803.

Dienstleistungen des Freizeittauchens - Anforderungen an Ausbildungsprogramme zur Einführung in das Gerätetauchen (ISO 11121:2017)

Dieses Dokument legt die inhaltlichen Mindestanforderungen fest, welche durch Ausbildungseinrichtungen für Einstiegsprogramme im Freizeit-Gerätetauchen zu erfüllen sind. Keinesfalls sind diese Anforderungen als Standard für die Ausbildung und Qualifizierung von Gerätetauchern zu betrachten.
Dieses Dokument ist auf Programme anwendbar, welche den Aufenthalt der Teilnehmer im Freigewässer beinhalten. Es gilt nicht für Programme, die ausschließlich in begrenztem Gewässer stattfinden (z. B. in Schwimmbecken).
Dieses Dokument legt des Weiteren die Bedingungen für das Angebot dieser Dienstleistungen fest, welche die allgemeinen Anforderungen an Dienstleistungen des Freizeit-Gerätetauchens nach ISO 24803 ergänzen.

Services relatifs à la plongée de loisirs - Exigences pour les programmes d'introduction à la plongée subaquatique (ISO 11121:2017)

L'ISO 11121:2017 spécifie les exigences minimales relatives au contenu des programmes proposés par les organismes de formation dans le cadre de l'initiation à la plongée subaquatique de loisirs. Ces exigences ne constituent en aucun cas un référentiel normatif régissant la formation et les qualifications des plongeurs pratiquant la plongée subaquatique.
L'ISO 11121:2017 s'applique aux programmes impliquant que des participants plongent dans un espace aquatique ouvert. Elle ne s'applique pas aux programmes se déroulant uniquement en espace aquatique restreint (par exemple, en piscine).
L'ISO 11121:2017 fixe également les conditions dans lesquelles ce service doit être fourni et complète donc les exigences générales relatives aux services de plongée de loisirs spécifiées dans l'ISO 24803.

Centri za rekreacijsko potapljanje - Zahteve uvodnega programa za potapljanje (ISO 11121:2017)

Ta mednarodni standard določa minimalne zahteve za organizacije, ki ponujajo uvodne programe za potapljanje posameznikom brez predhodnega usposabljanja za potapljača. Ta mednarodni standard se uporablja za programe, ki vključujejo udeležence v odprtem vodnem okolju. Ne uporablja se za programe, ki se izvajajo izključno v omejenem vodnem okolju (npr. bazeni). Ta mednarodni standard določa tudi pogoje, pod katerimi se zagotavlja ta storitev, ki dopolnjujejo splošne pogoje za storitve rekreacijskega potapljanja, določene v standardu ISO 24803.
