Assistant Instructor

The Assistant Instructor rating is the next step after becoming a Divemaster along the scuba instructor pathway. It allows you to collect valuable teaching experience, practice briefings, teach academics, and conduct in-water training.

Candidate prerequisites are as follows: 

• Minimum age of 18 years old
• Have logged 60 open water dives totaling 40 hours or more
• Divemaster certification through SSI or an equivalent certification from a recognized training agency

If you want to further your career as a dive professional, you can finish the Instructor Training Course, pass the Instructor Evaluation, and become an Open Water Diving Instructor.

Please bring a completed medical form with you to your first session.
