Looking for the first step in working with scuba as a career?
Your adventure into the professional levels of recreational scuba diving begins with the SSI Divemaster program.
 
Working closely with an Instructor, in this program you expand your dive knowledge and hone your skills to the professional level.
 
SSI Divemaster training develops your leadership abilities, qualifying you to supervise dive activities and assist instructors with student divers. Divemaster is the prerequisite certification for both the  Assistant Instructor and Open Water Scuba Instructor certifications.
 
What You Learn
During the SSI Divemaster program, you learn dive leadership skills through both classroom and independent study. You complete water skills and stamina exercises, as well as training exercises that stretch your ability to organize and solve problems as well as help others improve their scuba. You put this knowledge into action through a structured internship or series of practical training exercises.
 
What You Can Teach
After becoming certified as a SSI Divemaster you will be authorized to:
Supervise both training and non-training-related activities by planning, organizing and directing dives
Assist an Instructor during the training sessions for any SSI Diver course
Conduct the SSI Skin Diver course and SSI Discover Snorkeling program
Conduct the refresher program
Earn the SSI Digital Underwater Photography Specialty Instructor rating to be able to teach the SSI Digital Underwater Photography specialty
Independently guide Open Water Diver course students on the tour portion of Open Water Diver course Training Dives 2, 3 and 4 at a ratio of two student divers per certified divemaster.
Accompany Open Water Diver students under the indirect supervision of a SSI Instructor during:
Surface swims to and from the entry/exit point and during navigational exercises
When the instructor conducts a skill, such as an ascent or descent, a Divemaster can remain with other student divers (with an individual student or buddy team)
Accompany student divers during Adventure Dives or Specialty training dives under the indirect supervision of a SSI Instructor
Conduct subsequent dives under an instructor’s indirect supervision for discovery dive participants after participants have satisfactorily completed the first dive with a SSI Instructor

The Scuba Gear You Use
You use all the basic scuba equipment and some scuba accessories such as a dive slate, dive knife, compass, dive watch, etc.
