The PADI Dive Master Course involves higher level learning that expands upon problem solving skills developed by the PADI Rescue Diver program and extends it from accident management and prevention scenarios to supervisory situations with student divers and certified divers. Dive Master problem solving includes more than safety-related issues, and includes handling customer service and operational challenges. Those who join the PADI Dive Master ranks assist instructors with training student divers and influence the safety and fun which divers enjoy during training and diving.
