The Divemaster course is the first step in an exciting journey. Take the Divemaster course and earn the respect of your dive buddies and become a diving ambassador. You only need to earn 40 verified/documented dives and certifications in deep diving, navigation, night diving and limited visibility, or at least 5 recorded/verified dives in each area, plus diver pressure and rescue. Upon successful completion of the Divemaster course, you will receive a dive guide certificate.
If you are interested in turning your passion into a career, mentoring certified divers, teaching ecology courses, assisting instructors or even becoming an instructor yourself, then your next step is to upgrade your divemaster with a minimum of 60 records/validations. Self-study dive science textbooks, pass the digital final exam, and become an SSI Professional Diver to upgrade to Divemaster immediately or at any time.
There are thousands of job opportunities around the world waiting for the next generation of highly qualified divers.
