Finally you will lead your own course with the support of staff on site for any questions or help you require. Once you have ‘cut your teeth’ on the Open Water Courses you will have the control in place to progress to the more advanced courses in a similar manner. We also provide quarterly ‘one to one’ sessions with our course director for all teaching staff, complemented by our own on site Member Forum from PADI each year to ensure that your progression as an instructor is always on track!
