internship. This is the certification that enables you as a PADI Divemaster,
to conduct the Discover Scuba Diving (DSD) programme.
This is an important part of your dive professional development
as a DM intern because it prepares you to take responsibility for
2 inexperienced student divers completing a Discover Scuba Diving
experience. You will learn how to complete the paperwork, conduct
a full DSD dive briefing and how to demonstrate the DSD skills to
instructor level. You will learn to assess the suitability of the
conditions in relation to your students abilities and inexperience,
as well as assist them on the surface and below the water, ensuring
the safety of yourself and your students at all times.
You will complete a minimum of 5 DSD’s under the supervision of one
of our experienced instructors. During these sessions you will practice
your presentation skills and take more and more of a lead role until
you are completing the whole Discover Scuba Diving experience for
yourself.
Becoming a DSD Leader is your first step in teaching scuba to student
divers and takes you one step closer to becoming an dive professional
instructor.
