Well
done, if you are reading this then you have completed the first part
of your own Personal Underwater Journey, you are now on the brink of
taking your first steps as a PADI Professional. As a PADI Divemaster
you will automatically gain a new level of respect whenever you go
diving, you will be joining the largest and most respected group of
professional divers anywhere in the world, and
you will gain more confidence than you ever imagined!
Yes, this is it, this
is your chance to evolve to a new level of diving way beyond what
most divers could ever hope to achieve. You will experience a whole
new intensity of diver training, and yes, there will be highs and
lows throughout the program, but when you qualify your sense of
achievement will be truly immense.
So are you ready for the
challenge?
Our
PADI Divemaster Program is run over a minimum three month period,
with a varying level of demand on your time. Your PADI Divemaster
course will comprise elements of knowledge development work in the
classroom, skill training sessions in the pool and open water whilst
you also work within an existing training team in a hands on role.
In addition to these scheduled parts of your
program, you will
also need to complete several self study team projects and homework
portions along the way.
The specific dates of
your course will be confirmed when you apply, however to give you an
idea of the level of commitment required we have included a
sample schedule, these modules are spread over a three
month period. There are of course additional components to your
course such as the internship work, mapping exercise and a risk
assessment project, along with a large amount of self study, but as
a PADI Divemaster managing your own time is also a skill in itself.
The internship
portion of your course will throw you into a real training
environment, almost immediately, where you will start to experience
what can really happen. This is probably the most enjoyable and
definitely the most rewarding part of the Divemaster Program, it
really does give you a huge buzz the first time you really do help
someone complete that difficult skill or re-assure them when
they are a little
apprehensive. Once you
are qualified that great
buzz feeling is open for the taking as often as you want, because
once qualified you are always more than welcome to join our existing
training team. 
So whether you
have set your sights on jacking in your day job and travelling the
world, working as you go in some of the worlds greatest dive sites,
or simply, you are ready for the your next challenge the PADI
Divemaster Program is definitely for you.
