Professional Instructor-Level II (Pro II)
Course Highlights:

At DIVE USA we believe that the training you receive in our IDC through MSDT courses are the bear minimum for you to be competitive in today's market. With this in mind, we developed the PRO II-an advanced professional development course.

The Pro II is an 8 day course which immediately follows the 5 day MSDT course. During this time you will earn PADI Instructor Specialties in fields such as Coral Reef Ecology, Underwater Photography, and will receive an introduction to Underwater Videography. In fact, we believe no diving professional can maximize his or her employment potential unless they have at least rudimentary skills in these vital areas.

Continuing our philosophy of training in emerging technologies of diving the Pro II will certify you as an Advanced Nitrox Instructor (you certified as a nitrox diver in Pro I) which enables you to teach IANTD (and in the future PADI) courses in Nitrox, Deep Air (to 130 ft. with simulated decompression techniques taught), and Advanced Nitrox. You will also be further introduced to the theory and safety considerations of rebreathers.
Topics:
  • Building Your Career
  • New Diver Acquisition Strategies and Techniques
  • Teaching and Marketing Specialty Training
  • Introduction to U/W Photography & Videography
  • Maintenance and Care of Imaging Equipment Around Students

PADI AI's who wish to count dives in this course toward their instructor requirements may also attend this course, but will only receive certification upon successful completion of their IE.
