Once you’ve completed the IDC and the IE, you’re fully qualified to teach from the DSD course all the way up to the Divemaster course. But you may still be a little insecure of the structure of the courses, the logistics of what equipment is needed for which dives, or the best techniques for controlling a large group of students underwater.

The Instructor Internship lets you “team-teach” with highly experienced instructors who can give you valuable tips and tricks on teaching, organizing your time and keeping your students happy.

Furthermore, the Instructor Internship greatly increases your chances of employment. You will have practical experience of real-life teaching, rather than being an instructor who has simply completed the IE. Watching experienced instructors teach is as valuable as the IDC itself. Our instructors are happy to provide their insight in the most effective teaching methods. By team-teaching with several different instructors through the internship, you will have a large collection of different approaches to adapt to your own teaching style.
