Why not get paid to teach the course and do the type of diving that you really enjoy? Specialty Courses are not only exciting and enjoyable, but more profitable. Being a MSDT will also make you a more marketable instructor. The MSDT includes Wreck, Night, Deep, EANx and Underwater Naturalist

IDC Staff Insturctor
PADI IDC Staff Instructors are PADI Instructors moving towards instructor-level training or teaching the Instructor Development Course (IDC). IDC Staff Instructors can independently train and certify PADI Assistant Instructors as well as help train PADI Open Water Scuba Instructors. At Ocean Divers, you will learn the skills necessary to conduct PADI Instructor Development courses from some of the most experienced PADI Course Directors in the dive industry.

Enriched Air Instructor (Nitrox)
Ocean Divers has been involved in Nitrox training courses, filling and blending procedures, and diving for the past 20 years - longer than any other PADI training facility. With that much of a jump start on the sport diving industry in the education and use of Nitrox, it's only natural for Ocean Divers to offer a premier course on enriched air diving. The PADI Enriched Air course consists of an overview of the Instructor Guide, required PADI materials, and fundamental teaching techniques of the program along with two dives.

Resort Photo Pro Program
How many people say they wish they could take photos that look like what they see in diving magazines? After our course you may not be able to take photos like the pro’s do, but you will have the knowledge and skills needed to start like the pro’s did. This is a two day program that includes knowledge development, 4 dives using the most popular digital cameras, and critiquing of your shots. After the dives your pictures are loaded onto a disc for you to take with you. Upon completion of this course you will be eligable to apply for the PADI Digital Photo Instructor rating.

Oxygen First Aid for Scuba Diving Injuries
As a recreational diver, you can receive training to provide vital first aid that can make a difference to a scuba diver with decompression illness. The DAN Oxygen Provider Course provides entry-level training in the recognition and management of possible diving-related injuries using emergency oxygen first aid.

Advanced Oxygen First Aid for Scuba Diving Injuries
This advanced-level program is designed to train existing DAN Oxygen Providers to use the MTV-100 or a Bag Valve Mask while providing care for a non-breathing injured diver.

On-Site Neurological Assessment
Learn how to conduct a neurological assessment on a potentially injured diver in this course. The information
gained in this assessment can help convince a diver of the need for oxygen first aid, and help a physician
determine the proper treatment.

First Aid for Hazardous Marine Life Injuries
Serious hazardous marine life injuries are rare, but most divers experience minor discomfort from unintentional encounters with fire coral, jellyfish and other marine creatures. This course teaches divers to minimize these injuries and reduce diver discomfort and pain.

Automated External Defibrillators for Scuba Diving
More than 10 percent of all dive fatalities are actually caused by cardiovascular disease, according to DAN dive accident and fatality statistics. This course teaches divers and other interested parties to provide care for sudden cardiac arrest including the use of an automated external defibrillator (AEDs).

Remote Emergency Medical Oxygen (REMO2)
The DAN Remote Emergency Medical Oxygen (REMO₂™) system module supplements the DAN Oxygen First Aid in Scuba Diving Injuries course. Based on medical closed-circuit oxygen rebreather technology, the REMO₂™ device provides injured divers with high concentrations of emergency oxygen for extended periods. This training course instructs the Oxygen Provider in the use of DAN's new REMO₂™ system.

Diving Emergency Management Provider Program
Learn the knowledge and skills from several courses into one single approach to dive emergency management.
