Sommet et Neige training centre
In 2025, we decided to expand our horizons.
We are proud to introduce our new training center for scuba diving instructors, created for those who dream of teaching underwater. Different elements, same quality standards!
For years, Sommet et Neige has trained professionals of the mountains. Now, we’re diving into the sea. We are a specialized training center dedicated to preparing future ski instructors—and starting this year, Scuba Diving Instructors and Divemasters as well. Whether your passion leads you to the snowy peaks or beneath the waves, we’re here to help you turn it into a career! As a training centre we are excited to be working alongside our trusted partners, Scuba Revolution in Sardinia and Massub in Liguria.
