Specialty Instructor Science Of Diving

The Science of Diving Specialty Instructor Program is designed for instructors who wish to teach diving theory in a safe, understandable and practical manner. Science of Diving is not an optional subject. Every diving instructor must be able to master and teach this content, especially as part of the Divemaster training. Physics, physiology, decompression and equipment form the basis for making safe decisions underwater. At the same time, it is precisely this basic knowledge that is often underestimated or perceived as "dry theory" in everyday training. However, a solid understanding of the interrelationships is crucial for safe, relaxed and healthy dives in the long term. Specialty Instructor candidates work through the available course material independently. We also contribute our experience from the Punkfish Academy. There we have been working intensively for years on the question of how complex theory can be taught in an understandable, clear and interesting way. On this basis, you will develop your own Science of Diving course plan, which is based on real training situations. The focus is on linking theory with practice, incorporating examples from everyday diving life and preparing content in such a way that it is comprehensible and relevant for divers. The Specialty Instructor Seminar takes place as a live webinar. It is based on the candidates' course plans, which are discussed together, further developed and didactically sharpened. The aim is to create a course structure that not only guides divers through the theory, but also wins them over. Science of Diving does not become a compulsory block, but a tool that noticeably improves understanding, safety and quality in training.
