The Preparation

Well, We have the books and we have the plan. Time to get reading!
The three of us have gotten together with our Course Director and we are developing the plan. If it works we will be Instructors by the end of June!

We have a lot of work to do and the difference between Divemaster and Instructor with regards to skills and training has become apparent. We have opted to begin weekly practice sessions before we start our IDC.

So far it has been very successful. We have an instructor critiquing us as we critique each other.
Together we can't loose!

PATRIOT SCUBA - The Quest for Instructor

So we've done the DIVEMASTER cert and it has been a blast! Helping instructors and students has been absolutely Awesome! Now it is time to try on the instructor hat.

I'e got the books and I've got the instructor and now we've got the plan! Time to move out.

Follow three DIVEMASTERS from PATRIOT SCUBA into the pool and into the classroom and all the way to the IE. Comments, recommendations and advice are more than welcome.
