It is Finished

I am happy to say that the two candidates are now Scuba Instructors. Their six months of hard work have payed off.

Now comes the real learning!

The card is just a piece of plastic, you are what is important. How you conduct yourself, the knowledge you command and the way you share it with others is the measure that is seen. Represent yourself well, represent those who trained you, well.

All eyes are upon you, everyone will be listening with keen ears. You can no longer dive without being viewed as a professional, an open water scuba instructor. Make sure what people see, is something they want to be.

Think back now to the beginning, to the time you wanted to learn of the underwater world. Remember the awe and pure joy! Share this and your love of diving with your students. If you do this, you can't go wrong.

Congratulations John and Arbrey! I expect you to be better, better than me! Be Safe and have Fun!

Last Night of Training Day 28 Academics

Tonight was the last night of Scuba Instructor training for John Branch and Arbrey Stiefer.

Tonight the Instructor Candidates presented Boyle's law, General Gas law and both gave a complete Open water Brief and Debrief. 

Both IC's show command of the knowledge, organization and innovation.

Saturday they will demonstrate to another Instructor Trainer and Course Director what skills they have and if they believe that each is competent to teach their own loved one.

No endorsement can be higher!

After nearly one half of a year of training, I believe these men are ready to become Open Water Scuba Instructors.  Saturday they will prove it.
