The PADI Master Scuba Diver and Specialty Instructor Course.

What is a PADI Specialty Instructor?

Earning PADI specialty Instructor ratings allow you to teach a wide array of exciting courses in special interest areas. Besides giving you the chance to do your favorite type of diving, specialty diver courses allows you to share your interests and expertise with others. Many PADI Specialty courses are supported with videos and books that make them easier to teach and sell. Taking Specialty Instructor Training Courses with us provides you with practical experience for conducting these courses. The emphasize is on fun and in-water application.

What can PADI Specialty Instructor do?

By completing a Specialty Instructor Training Course, instructor candidates need only to document 10 logged open water dives (20 for Semi-closed Re-breather) in the specialty area, rather than the 20 dives required when applying directly to PADI.
These dives may be completed as part of the Specialty Instructor Training course. The formal education provided by Specialty Instructor Training courses also eliminates the need for instructors to have certified 25 divers

Description:

PADI Specialty Instructor Training courses teach instructor candidates how to organize, promote and conduct PADI Specialty Diver courses. These courses emphasize the importance of Specialty Diver training within the PADI System of diver education. Often, several Specialty Instructor Training courses are taught in conjunction with one another as part of a Master Scuba Diver Trainer Preparatory program.
