Dive
Master at Coral Grand Divers Koh Tao
Ask any person involved
in diving what a Divemaster is and the most common answer will be a
dive leader. Being a Divemaster is just that and then some. As a
Divemaster your job will entail anything from handling the dive boat
to mingling with potential divers at the resort swimming pool. In
order to be successful as a Divemaster you will need to be flexible
in every way with emphasis on dive safety which is paramount here
with Coral Grand Divers.
Dive master Development
Course:
Your training as a PADI
Divemaster is extremely important. Not many people recognize that a
Divemaster is typically responsible for the lives of people in a
potential hostile environment. This is what we have based The Coral
Grand Divemaster Development Course on. As a PADI Divemaster you are
expected to have excellent people skills, good rescue technique,
sound judgment and a broad knowledge of dive theory - and this is
the goal we have set out to achieve.
So what is different at
Coral Grand Divers?
At Coral Grand Divers
our 8 week Divemaster course is taught and supervised by two
dedicated staff. All the theoretical aspects as well as water and
stamina skills are taught & supervised by our Course Director and
Dive Operations Manager with each Divemaster candidate also being
assigned one personal instructor & Divemaster mentor. After a
certain proficiency has been reached, the Divemaster candidate will
then have a chance to float between the rest of the instructional
staff for more experience. We will address your individual strengths
and weaknesses in order to focus on the right areas during the
program. Should you for example have trouble with physics, then we
will spend some extra time on that subject. As you are probably
aware guiding certified divers and assisting is an important aspect
of a Divemaster's job. To make you strong in both these departments
we have chosen to exceed the minimum training requirements required
by PADI. During our Divemaster Development Course you will have a
chance to interact with real guests and customers as well as act out
role-playing scenarios with the staff and other Divemaster trainees
as well as operate in a real-time diving resort environment.
Duration:
We at Coral Grand Divers
Koh Tao will not accept anybody for Divemaster training for a
period of less than 6 weeks. Why?
Coral Grand Divers Koh
Tao provides a high level of training and internship. When our
former trainees move on to the professional diving world, we want
them to take with them the confidence and professionalism that a 6
to 8 week course will instill.
PADI's prerequisites:
1. Be certified as a
PADI Advanced Open Water Diver (or equivalent).
2. Be certified as a PADI Rescue Diver (or equivalent).

Want
to be more employable?
Increase your chances of
finding a job by becoming an Emergency First Response Instructor.
This excellent program has quickly set the standard for first aid
programs within the diving industry and as a Dive master you will be
fully qualified to teach by participating in the Emergency First
Response Instructor program. Completing a D.A.N. Oxygen Provider
course is also recommended especially as this is more frequently
becoming a prerequisite for employment in some countries.
Make the right choice!
At Coral Grand Divers
Koh Tao, we believe that an informed choice is the best solution. If
you would like further information, do not hesitate to email us.
