The TDI Technical Divemaster Course is the first professional level certification in the TDI Leadership levels. During this course you will be challenged and learn what it is like to work with divers as they begin or continue their technical diving experiences. You will learn how to manage divers, work the dive deck of a boat, and conduct enjoyable dives. Dive physics, physiology, how conduct pre-dive briefing, how to assist technical instructors as well as how to be a professional TDI Divemaster are all part of the course. Your skills will be refined to demonstration quality and your knowledge increased to that of a professional.

Should you decide you want to teach technical diver courses you will need to complete a SDI Open Water Scuba Diving Instructor course; here you will learn more about academic and in-water presentations, conducting courses and diver management.
