Make the move from dive guide to dive educator with the SSI Instructor Training Course on Koh Tao, one of the world's busiest certification hubs. Working in the warm, forgiving 28-30C Gulf of Thailand, candidates master SSI's modular teaching system and rehearse open-water presentations at sites like White Rock and Chumphon Pinnacle before the SSI Instructor Evaluation, finishing ready to teach SSI programs of their own.
The SSI Instructor Training Course is delivered by an SSI Instructor Certifier and assessed through the SSI Instructor Evaluation. On passing you become an SSI Open Water Instructor, able to teach SSI programs through the digital MySSI platform, with ratings recognised worldwide.
Open-water teaching uses Koh Tao's sheltered bays like Mango Bay and Japanese Gardens, with deeper presentations at White Rock and Chumphon Pinnacle. The Gulf of Thailand is divable all year at 28-30C, with the best visibility from March to May.
