With the release of new training material, BSAC has also replaced the well known BSAC Blue Qualification Record Book with a new Qualification Record Folio, in the form of a filofax with a fogged plastic jacket. Only the spine of the jacket is printed with the BSAC Logo, while the back and front covers are blank, so you can paste your own favourite stickers on them! Inside, there are loose leaf pages similar to those in the former Blue Qualification Record Book, and all the necessary tabbed plastic dividers separating the pages for the different grades of diver qualifications. For each grade of qualification, a coloured leaf - blue for Ocean Diver, orange for Sports Diver, green for Dive Leader and purple for Advanced Diver - is provided with appropriate spaces for the branch diving officer's signature and branch stamp.
