If you like people, have a passion for scuba diving and want an extraordinary life – become a 7-Heroes Instructor. Teaching scuba diving allows you to share your love of the aquatic world with others while doing what you enjoy – being in, around and under water. 7-HeroesOpen Water Scuba Instructors and 7-Heroes Assistant Instructors are the most sought-after dive professionals around the world because they’ve completed the program that sets the standard for training dive professionals. You earn a 7-Heroes Instructor rating through hard work and commitment, but you’re rewarded with a job that lets you share incredible underwater adventures with others – transforming their lives for the better and enriching yours.

Are you ready to join the ranks of the dedicated professionals who teach the world’s most progressive and popular scuba diver education programs? Then Go PRO^SM with an Instructor Development Course.

The Instructor Development Course (IDC) is made up of two parts – the Assistant Instructor (AI) course and the Open Water Scuba Instructor (OWSI) program. Most dive professionals complete the entire IDC and go on to attend an Instructor Examination (IE), which is the final step to earn a 7-Heroes Instructor certification.

Successfully completing just the AI course results in a 7-Heroes Assistant Instructor qualification. When an AI is ready to progress, attending an OWSI program allows entry into an IE to earn a full 7-Heroes Instructor rating.

Dive professionals who hold an instructor rating with another diver training organization may be eligible to enroll directly in the OWSI program. This recognizes prior instructor training and provides a path to become a 7-Heroes Instructor.
