| PADI DiveMaster Course |
| Your adventure into the professional levels of recreational diving
begins with the PADI Divemaster program. Working closely with one of
Florida Scuba Dude own instructors you will expand your dive knowledge and
your skills to the professional level.
Divemaster training develops your leadership abilities, qualifying
you to supervise dive activities and assist instructors with student
divers.
During your Divemaster program, you will learn dive leadership skills
through both classroom and independent study. You will complete water
skills and stamina exercises, as well as training exercises that stretch
your ability to organize and solve problems relating to supervising
divers.
You will put this knowledge into action through an internship or series
