Help students discover the mysteries that lurk in the deep dive sites with the Deep Specialty Instructor course.
The Course
Training for the Deep Specialty Instructor certification begins with showing you new teaching techniques, as well as how to fine-tune your skills to be the best instructor you can be. During this course, you will be responsible for teaching divers how important it is to respect personal limits when it comes to deep diving. Throughout four deep dives, you show your students the effects of specialized deep diving equipment, how to properly plan a deep dive, buddy procedures, buoyancy control, how to manage gas supply, dealing with narcosis, and other safety considerations.
Prerequisites
