Project Description

This course is a continuation of the Assistant Instructor training.

• The diving industry
• General standards and procedures
• Risk management and legal responsibilities

• Scuba Diver and Open Water Diver
• The Adventures in Diving program
• Specialty courses and Master Scuba Diver
