SSI Dive Guide – SSI DivemasterThe SSI Dive Guide program is the first step on a diver’s professional journey. You will learn to safely lead certified divers in various conditions, prepare high-quality dive briefings, evaluate dive sites, and lead dives as a responsible guide.At Divers Direct, we’ll prepare you not only to meet SSI standards, but above all for the real-world work with people, teamwork, and the responsibilities that come with this level.The purpose of the program is to provide students with the knowledge and training they will need to lead certified divers. It is the first step in a career as an SSI dive professional. A Professional Dive Guide / Divemaster can work for SSI dive centers and lead dives in various environments and under various conditions. Upon completion of the program, the student earns the SSI Dive Guide certification; if they also complete the SSI Science of Diving program, they earn the SSI Divemaster certification.Practical InformationPRICE: Diveguide 15,999 CZKPRICE: Divemaster 19,999 CZKIncluded in the course pricetraining materialsAdmission to the dive pit and open-water trainingInstructor Servicesat the dive site: rental of weights and tanks, including air fills at the dive sitefinal certificationNot included in the priceAdmission fees and charges at outdoor training sites (quarry admission fees, diving fees, parking fees, etc.)Tank filling at outdoor training sitestransportation to the training locationSSI Professional fees upon activation of active statusCourse DatesWe typically start the course at the beginning of the season (April/May) and finish it at the end of August or beginning of September.
