Instructor Training Course
You want to travel the world and work as a diving instructor? You want to share your great sport with friends and acquaintances? You want to learn how to pass on your passion for the underwater world to others?
The Instructor Training Course prepares you for just that.
Our experienced team of instructors will give you lots of tips and tricks on how to successfully train divers. This is a multi-faceted course that will provide you with a wealth of knowledge and skills.
Essential to understand is that this course is about reaching a level of diving that will enable you to teach new divers the joy and excitement of the sport in a completely safe environment.
The Instructor Training Course builds on the Assistant Instructor course. This is a prerequisite for participation.
Course description:
Theory: Digital training gives you the opportunity to study the theory at home at your leisure. We have planned additional theory lessons so that you can deepen what you have read. The theory of the AI- ITC course is extensive and gives you a lot of information. In the theory lessons we show you how to deliver the lessons. We introduce you to SSI standards and theory.
We show you how to run special courses and what is expected of a dive professional.
Pool: In our heated pool we then go through several sessions on how to deliver practical lessons, how to demonstrate underwater exercises and how to control a group of students. In addition to what they have already learned in the Assistant Instructor course, here we also practice the complex techniques of emergency ascent drills.
Open water: In an intensive workshop we work on how to conduct open water dives in diving courses. In particular, we look at recognising problems.
Permissions after the course:
After the ITC you are allowed to participate in the Instructor Evaluation. After this you are allowed to work as an SSI Instructor worldwide and to conduct diving courses.
After this course you are allowed to teach the following courses on your own: All beginner levels as well as Stress& Rescue, Nitrox, Buoyancy and Dive Guide (non professional). You can go on to teach various specialty courses at instructor level.
