Specialty Instructor
The PADI Specialty Instructor (SI) course
trains certified PADI Instructors to teach specific PADI specialties (like Deep, Wreck, Nitrox, etc.), focusing on course standards, procedures, and practical skills for that specialty, often as part of the Master Scuba Diver Trainer (MSDT) program.
Teach a specialty course that interests you. Choose from, Deep Diver, Night Diver or Sidemount Diver course, just to name a few. We offer 10+ PADI Specialty Diver courses to choose from.
More scuba diving and more fun sharing what interests you - that's what teaching specialty diver courses is all about. The best way to learn how to make your specialty diver courses really special is to take a specialty instructor course from our PADI Course Director. Specialty instructor courses provide teaching tips and hands-on experience that you can implement right away.
All PADI Instructors will benefit from taking specialty instructor training courses, especially those who are ready to step up to the Master Scuba Diver™ Trainer (MSDT) rating, which requires at least five PADI Specialty Instructor certifications.
PADI Assistant Instructors, instructor candidates in training, and PADI Divemasters are eligible to enroll in certain specialty instructor courses. Some specialties have additional prerequisites and exit requirements - ask our PADI Course Director for details.
