About the course

What can I expect out of this qualification?

This qualification will provide the dive industry with dive supervisors who can independently manage and control the needs and welfare of groups of certified divers. Graduates are able to manage safety and implement industry good practice standards for diving trips and underwater tours in accordance with the ethical and professional responsibilities of a dive supervisor.

This qualification allows for graduates to build on their dive knowledge and practice through specialising in additional dive competencies through the completion of an optional strand. Graduates who achieve an optional strand, will also be able to assist the master of a dive vessel, operate dive plant and service equipment, or conduct dive sales and merchandising, dependent on strand selection.
