Step up from dive guide to dive educator with the SSI Open Water Instructor programme on Thailand's Phi Phi Islands, finishing certified to teach SSI courses and certify your own students. Training takes advantage of the calm, warm bays and limestone reef walls of the Phi Phi marine park, where conditions reaching around 30 metres let candidates polish confined- and open-water teaching presentations. You complete the Instructor Training and evaluation ready to join SSI's global teaching community.
The SSI Instructor Training Course is delivered by an SSI Instructor Trainer and concludes with an Instructor Evaluation. SSI uses a flexible, digital, performance-based system, so on certification you can teach SSI programmes worldwide and log everything through the MySSI platform.
Instructor workshops use the sheltered bays and reef walls of the Phi Phi marine park, where warm 27-30°C water and calm-to-moderate conditions in the November-to-April high season provide stable, varied terrain to perfect teaching before you certify students.
