SPSNL offers a one-day Introduction to Foreshore & Underwater Archaeology. The course is part of the training program offered by the Nautical Archaeology Society (NAS) of Portsmouth, England. The course is taught by Ken Keeping, Senior Tutor with SPSNL and/or Assistant Tutor Neil Burgess. The course is open to SPSNL members and others interested in learning about nautical archaeology and how to conduct wreck surveys. If you want to take part in SPSNL shipwreck projects, this course is required. This course is a prerequisite for taking the 2-day NAS Part I course and is open to scuba divers and non-divers.
Cost for the Intro course is $75 for SPSNL members and $125 for non-members (so it makes sense to join if you take the course). To participate in the diving portion of the course, participants need to already be certified Open Water scuba divers, and need to provide or rent their own diving gear. If you are interested in taking both the NAS Introduction and Part I courses, we have a special price for new or renewing SPSNL members: only $150!
