Professional Dive Training
One of the other things you can do on a Career Break is become a scuba diving professional. There are two kinds of diving professional in the PADI system. A PADI Divemaster is an on site manager, you manage dive operations and take people diving every single day. They are the backbone of the dive industry. An Instructor does all of that but also teaches and runs seminars.
The advantage of becoming a professional is that you have the industry leading qualifications to work in scuba diving, from recreational diving to research and conservation projects. And you have an enormous array of transferable leadership and communication CV skills sought after in all industries. |
