Course programme
Do you want to be a professional? Expand your skills, assist other divers, introduce them to the underwater world you fell in love with and pass on the knowledge and skill you have accumulated; PADI professional ratings allow you to do all this and more, either as a part time occupation or as a new way of life. Career opportunities are wide ranging and varied and your non-diving skills and interests are invaluable. Go on - take the plunge - make your hobby your life!
What do I need to become a PADI professional?
We strongly recommend that you are a Master Scuba Diver as experience of different skills is ideal. You will also need to have done at least 60 dives to qualify as a Divemaster or 100 for Instructor although you can start with less. You will need to have your own equipment so that you are familiar and comfortable with it - don't worry if you haven't got it yet, come and have a chat about what you need.PADI Divemast
