skills and diving knowledge to instructor level; learns to control groups of divers and
assist instructors during lessons. Certification as a divemaster allows the diver to
become a member of PADI and to receive the benefits of membership including the
association journal "The Undersea Journal".

- Watermanship and skill assessment
- Knowledge development Practical
- Application
The first module includes a review of rescue and
accident management skills; the perfection of general diving skills and competency in the
