Are you an instructor with another agency looking to broaden your horizons? Scuba Diving International (SDI) was created in 1998 on the back of Technical Diving International, SDI’s sister company. SDI’ training system offers a no nonsense approach, enabling instructors the flexibility to tailor courses to their students’ needs.
We run our crossovers anywhere worldwide and can even offer them online. The crossover has the following sections:
- eLearning – to be completed in the candidate’s own time prior to the theory portions
- Instructor Material familiarisation – to be completed in the candidate’s own time prior to the theory portions
- Presentations – these can be completed in person or via an online webinar
- Application – this form will be completed together to ensure the candidate receives the crossover levels they wish.
