Why choosing us
|
Becoming a PADI PRO can be a life-changing moment. We understand this well because it marked the end of our old lives and the beginning of our diving careers. Unfortunately, too often, people receive insufficient or inadequate attention during this process, resulting in training that falls far short of what it should be. As Instructor Trainers, we can see significant differences in the level of candidates entering our Instructor Development Courses. Often, the students report a lack of training in various segments of their Divemaster Training and no direction during the program. In some cases, the program's duration was too short, and everything was conducted too superficially, leaving no time for repetition and mastery.

At DivePRO Courses, we firmly believe that a strong foundation is the key to a successful start to a dive career, and this is why we take your training seriously while also ensuring that it's a fun and positive experience. We devote our full energy to building your confidence, and provide ample time for you to acquire the skills and qualities that employers value in prospective employees.

PADI SPECIALTIES
While having Specialties is not mandatory to become a Divemaster, some of them are an absolute essential if you intend to work in the scuba diving industry. Divemasters with these important Specialties are more employable, equipped with the necessary skills and knowledge that employers seek.
Emergency Oxygen ProviderFor those aspiring to excel in their diving careers, we recommend the Emergency O₂ Provider Specialty course. This certification is crucial for handling Oxygen kits in certain countries and is often a requirement for working as a dive professional in many locations.
Request it especially if you are planning to include your Rescue Diver and Emergency First Response courses as part of your package. We will integrate it to offer you the best price! |

Enriched Air NitroxNumerous divers extend their no-decompression limit with EANx. In the Philippines, nearly half of divers opt for Nitrox. Without EANx certification, you can't match their bottom time, impacting job opportunities in all dive centers, where accommodating all customers' preferences is crucial.
Complete this PADI Specialty in just half a day and unlock the benefits of Nitrox diving forever! |

Adaptive Teaching TechniquesHave you ever wondered how can people dive with different disabilities?
This skill is the epitome of excellence for us, differentiating between a good and an exceptional Scuba Professional.

DISCOVER SCUBA DIVING LEADER

If you don't have immediate plans to become a PADI Instructor but want to maximize your certification, consider becoming a Discover Scuba Diving (DSD) Leader. In this role, you can independently conduct DSD programs, allowing your friends and family to experience breathing underwater for the first time!
The process is straightforward. You'll need to lead and supervise four real DSD experiences under the guidance of your PADI Instructor. Upon satisfactory performance, your mentor will sign your application and help you to submit it to PADI via email. After paying the required PADI Certification fees, you'll receive the eCard in your PADI app, granting you the ability to conduct DSD programs by yourself. |
