A Part of the Family

I was referred to Aussie Divers Phuket and Darren Gaspari by Platinum Course Director Christophe Pace

I had a very enjoyable and professional IDC with Darren and Ash. Both had a great sense of humor which made the course go quite quickly.

Both spent extra time with me working on areas that I had trouble with. Unfortunately I am not very good at Physics and Physiology and both spent many of extra hours making sure that I was able to pass the exams comfortably.

I came away from the course not only as a PADI Scuba Diving Instructor but with a new approach on scuba diving.

I also made many friends amongst the Aussie Divers team who made me feel like one of the family.

All in all I couldn’t could have asked for more and I hope one day to return to Thailand and work for Aussie Divers.

Living The Dream After Instructor Graduation

Finding work after becoming a Scuba Diving Instructor can sometimes be a daunting task, you are competing against people with much more experience who have been working in the industry longer. The best thing about doing your Instructor Course in Phuket is that there is almost always work for new instructors and Aussie Divers will help you to get it. We have awesome and varied post graduation programs, ranging from 'Ride Alongs' with our elite instructors to instructor internships where experience & responsibility can be had in real world environments with real customers, getting you the qualifications & certifications you need to be attractive to employers.

The absolute best way to ensure employability after you graduate to a fully fledged (OWSI) Open Water Scuba Diving Instructor is to continue your training with PADI, especially when it comes to the PADI instructor specialties we teach here at Aussie Divers. Once you have five Instructor specialties under your belt you will become an M.S.D.T or Master Scuba Diver Trainer, which looks much better on your diving resume'. Specialties include being able to teach the PADI Deep Diver (40m), Enriched Air Nitrox, PADI Wreck Diver, Sidemount Diver, Digital Underwater Photographer courses, plus many many more!

Once I had made the decision to continue my diving education and become a PADI Open Water Scuba Instructor I put a lot of research in to finding the right PADI 5 Star IDC centre, knowing that both the centre and PADI Course Director I chose would have a big impact on my success and future Scuba career. I was in Phuket and had discovered Aussie Divers online. After reading many glowing reviews I decided to book in for some fun dives, and to meet with the Course Director, Darren Gaspari, in person before making a final decision. I found the whole set up and experience with Aussie Divers to be highly professional and after chatting with Darren, I knew [...]

Andrew Dahl

After a non-teaching gap of 20 years, I decided to re-certify as a PADI Open Water Scuba Instructor making me a bit of an unusual PADI IDC student. Having already been an instructor working professionally in the industry many many years ago, I knew that my relationship with my PADI Course Director was vitally important.
