Becoming a Professional Divemaster

As a PADI Divemaster, you become a pro member of PADI (Professional Association of Diving Instructors). PADI Pro members are divemasters, assistant instructors, open water instructors and all upwards to the course directors. Professional means your dream have come true, turning your scuba diving  from a hobby to something you do for a living.

divemaster internshipHence, becoming a divemaster can be considered real vocational training but also a lot of fun! As a divemaster internship trainee you will learn what is important for you work in recreational scuba diving, such as guiding fun dives with certified divers, assisting instructors in scuba courses and learn how to take people in to diving that never have been scuba diving before or help certified divers who havent been in the water for a while to fresh up their skills.

During your divemaster internship you will learn a wide range of various skills in and outside the water you need to be well versed in. You will learn everything about dive set up and management, dive briefings, how to map a dive sites, search and recovery scenarios as well as emergency scenarios. You will lead divers in a controlled environment supervised by your instructor and you will assist on a number of PADI courses. Thus, you will need to learn how to demonstrate scuba diving skills (such as clearing a mask, recover your regulator, etc.) on a professional level. Professional means, you are doing it slowly but make it look easy and effortless to your students.

The idea is that you will learn to demonstrate skills to such a good standard during your divemaster course, that you will be ready to enroll in a PADI instructor development course (IDC), should you choose to do so.
