Open Water Instructor - Crossover / Professional Courses

Get started today - You need to be a Divemaster or equivalent to participate in SSI's 3-Step Instructor Training Approach. The training process starts with the combination of Assistant Instructor / Instructor Training Course, accompanied by Digital Learning. Upon successful completion of the Instructor Training Course (ITC), you will enroll in an Instructor Evaluation (IE) to qualify as an SSI Open Water Instructor. This 10-day training program entitles you to teach several major SSI programs independently, such as Scuba Diver, Open Water Diver, Enriched Air Nitrox, Diver Stress & Rescue, and Dive Guide. For those who wish to dedicate more time to learning and gain valuable teaching experience between training programs, the 3 parts can also be done as single steps – Assistant Instructor, Instructor Training Course (ITC) and Instructor Evaluation (IE), one after the other, at your own pace and with a flexible schedule.
