Course Description
Get recognized as an elite scuba diving educator who, through dedication and hard work, has proven to be a dive industry leader. Become a better public speaker and get really good at demonstrating skills. Teaching scuba diving allows you to share your love of the aquatic world with others while doing what you enjoy - being in, around and under water. Open Water Scuba Instructors and Assistant Instructors are the most sought-after dive professionals around the world because they've completed the program that sets the standard for training dive professionals. You earn an Instructor rating through hard work and commitment, but you're rewarded with a job that lets you share incredible underwater adventures with others - transforming their lives for the better and enriching yours. Are you ready to join the ranks of the dedicated professionals who teach the world's most progressive and popular scuba diver education programs? Then Go PROSM with an Instructor Development Course. The Instructor Development Course (IDC) is made up of two parts - the Assistant Instructor (AI) course and the Open Water Scuba Instructor (OWSI) program. Most dive professionals complete the entire IDC and go on to attend an Instructor Examination (IE), which is the final step to earn an Instructor certification. Successfully completing just the AI course results in an Assistant Instructor qualification. When an AI is ready to progress, attending an OWSI program allows entry into an IE to earn a full Instructor rating. Dive professionals who hold an instructor rating with another diver training organization may be eligible to enroll directly in the OWSI program. This recognizes prior instructor training and provides a path to become a PADI Instructor. A Divemaster who has been a certified diver for six months may enroll in the Instructor Development Course. You also need: At least 60 logged dives and 100 dives to attend an IE. Emergency First Response Primary and Secondary Care (CPR and First Aid) training within the past 24 months. A medical statement signed by a physician within the last 12 months.
