SDI is also unique amongst recreational diver training organisations in that it recognises solo diving as part of recreational diving, and offers a special training course relating to it. [cite web| url=http://www.tdisdi.com/index.php?did=44&site=1|title=SDI - Solo Course a unique learning opportunity |publisher=Scuba Diving International| accessdate=2008-06-05] Every other major recreational diver training organisation mandates diving with a "buddy" at all times.
SDI is a member of The World Recreational Scuba Training Council. [cite web|url=http://www.wrstc.com/agency.php?country=usa|publisher=World Recreational Scuba Training Council|title=United States Agencies|accessdate=2007-11-21]
