The SSI DiveCon certificaton allows
you to get one step higher on the professional ladder, allowing you
to teach theory as well as being a certified assistant. You get to
do, day after day, what you enjoy doing. How many people can
honestly say that about their jobs? With your professional diving
certification and a passport, you've got a ticket to and an income
from adventure and travel around some of the most beautiful spots in the world.
With our DiveCon program you can live for a time in a tropical
paradise not only gaining more diving experience, but learning how
to guide dive tours, learn more about the vast variety of marine
life and assist with the development of student divers. Learn to
help impart your enthusiasm and love of diving to people taking
their first breaths underwater and celebrate with them at the
completion of their course.
The DiveCon course helps you to develop your
knowledge of dive theory, and in water diving skills to a
professional level. You will
receive the DiveCon pack which contains all course material, which
is yours to keep after the course. In addition to areas found on
equivalent leadership level courses the DiveCon also incorporates
learning academic teaching and presentation techniques. To enroll in
the DiveCon program you need to be an SSI Advanced Diver (or
equivalent) and proof of formal C.P.R. training from a recognized
agency within the last two years is required. A total of sixty
logged dives are required for certification, but if the course
requisites are met earlier and you are short of time then you can
complete the remaining dives elsewhere in the world. You are then
eligible to gain your certification as a DiveCon.
