As the entry to professional levels in diver training, the PADI Divemaster course plays
a pivotal role within the PADI System of diver education. Those who join the PADI
Divemaster ranks assist instructors with training student divers. They supervise diving activities for certified divers, snorkelers and skin divers. Divemasters strongly influence the safety and fun divers enjoy during training and diving. Many PADI Divemasters are looking ahead, gaining professional experience they will apply as PADI Assistant Instructors and Open Water Scuba Instructors.

The PADI Divemaster course is designed to help candidates develop exemplary diving skills, rescue skills, and professional-level knowledge of dive theory. Candidates also gain competence as a certified assistant, develop dive management and supervision abilities and learn how to independently conduct specific PADI programs.
