Take the first step to becoming a PADI Pro with the PADI Divemaster Internship Course.

Working closely with a PADI Instructor at our PADI Centre in London, 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.

Competent and resourceful Divemasters are critical to any dive operation and this is why we offer free training on an internship basis (if you complete the EFR and Rescue with our PADI Centre in London) ie. you assist at a number of evening and weekend courses following completion of the course. This provides you with the valuable experience you need and supplies us with extra DMs to assist with courses.

The course covers dive leadership through classroom and independent study sessions, water skills and stamina exercises in confined and open water, plus training exercises to test organizational and problem solving abilities.
