Divemaster
(Level Four)
​
A RAID Divemaster is one of the most highly respected ratings in the dive community and the first Pro level within the RAID system. RAID Divemaster is a prerequisite to becoming a RAID Dive Instructor.
As a RAID Divemaster you can plan, organise and lead dives for certified divers.
​
If you love diving and want to share your passion with others, if you are looking for an exciting career or to travel Planet Ocean with a professional credential under your belt, a RAID Divemaster course is for you.
As a Divemaster Candidate, you will be immersed in a Scuba Diving Environment. The more you put into this course, the more you will get out of it. You are not limited to doing anything once - you can do it again and again!
A few examples of what you will get up to:
Assisting multiple Open Water, Explorer 30 and Master Rescue courses.
Learning how to demonstrate scuba skills to a high standard
Operating and maintaining the air compressor
Learning to fill scuba cylinders
Hydrostatically testing scuba cylinders
Briefing and leading dives
How to find the boat!
​
You also have the opportunity to work with and seek knowledge from scuba instructors who have worked in this industry, all around the world, for the last 15+ years.
