Want to do what we do? Want to learn our scuba secrets?
Become a professional, go diving, get paid for it. Dive Guide is your first step down the professional path.
The Dive Guide Program is designed for those who like to travel, work overseas, or may be looking for a part time position. Dive Guides guide certified divers but do not assist with courses or supervise student and non-certified divers.
Dive Guide Program is the most intense single program offered by HDA. This program is designed to give students all the skills needed to be a safe diver as well as the knowledge and expertise to also be a great dive professional.
How It Works
This program gives you the skills and experience required to safely lead groups of certified divers. It is also the first step towards an exciting career as an SSI Dive Professional without requiring you to complete an instructor training program. Guides can work for SSI Dive Centers, guiding dives in a variety of environments and conditions. This is a prerequisite for Divemaster, Assistant Instructor, and Open Water Instructor.
Timeline
This is an intensive course that usually involves 8-10 sessions in the classroom, confined, and open water environments.
Sessions are usually 4-5 hours long but may be longer depending on how much practice you need.
This course is a big deal! It elevates you from a recreational diver into the realm of the pros. Plan on a serious time and energy commitment, as it takes a lot to learn to do what we do.
