Take the first step in your dive career and become a PADI Divemaster. Working closely with a PADI Master Instructor, you'll expand your dive knowledge and hone your skills as you become a dive professional. PADI Divemaster training develops your leadership abilities by training you to supervise dive activities and assist Instructors with student divers.

What do I need to start?

• PADI Advanced Open Water Diver
• PADI Rescue Diver certification
• Medical clearance signed by a physician
• 20 logged dives
• 18 years old

What will I do?

• Learn dive leadership through classroom and independent study sessions
• Complete water skills and stamina exercises in confined and open water
• Training exercises to test organizational and problem solving abilities
• An internship and/or series of practical training exercises

How long will it take?

• The Divemaster course can take quite a while to do in Hong Kong as many people can only commit to weekends and the odd evening. At Splash we feel that Professional level training should not be hurried. Some companies will claim that you can be adequately trained as a Divemaster in a little as two weeks. A Divemaster program with Splash Hong Kong would probably take at least 2 months.
