Getting certified as a scuba instructor
The career of a scuba diver instructor has many benefits. Although the job is rewarding and can lead to physical and mental growth, there are some challenges. For example, the instructor may be responsible for leading a group of novice divers on their first dive. Experience is a great asset when teaching scuba diving.
Most training organizations require instructors to continue their education. They also encourage instructors to attend seminars and advanced courses. This allows them to have many qualifications that can lead to higher levels. This includes being qualified to teach the full range of PADI dive classes.
Although the length of a scuba course can vary from one area to another, it is usually three to five days. The class generally consists of three components: theory development, confined diving, and open water diving. While some courses can easily be completed online, others require that you attend a local dive centre.
