Lead by example and inspire future divers to continue their education

Build on your foundation as OWSI

Teaching continuing education is the cornerstone of safe and responsible diving. Here's why it matters to you and your students:

  1. Enhanced Safety: Educated divers are undoubtedly safer divers. As an instructor teaching specialties, you actively contribute to the ongoing improvement of your student divers' skills and knowledge. This experience not only enhances their safety but also equips you to handle a diverse range of underwater situations with greater ease and confidence.

  2. Environmental Awareness: Enhance your sense of purpose as a Specialty Instructor and discover the joy of teaching courses such as Dive Against Debris, Fish Identification, Reef Renewal, Lionfish Hunter, and many more. By encouraging divers to pursue additional training, you instill a deeper appreciation for marine life and ecosystems in them. It's a win-win opportunity!

  3. Lifelong Passion: Experience the tangible impact of your teaching as you inspire divers to explore new specialties and advanced techniques, keeping their passion for diving alive. Witnessing the enthusiasm and growth of your students is a rewarding journey that fuels your own passion for diving education.
