“The SSI Instructor Training Course at Oceans 5 was
excellent — professionally delivered, well-designed
and well-paced, with a great balance of theory,
practical training and support. It prepared us
extremely well for the Instructor Evaluation.
It wasn’t always easy, and there were certainly some
stressful moments, mainly because becoming an instructor
was so important to us. But Warren and Sander provided
tremendous support throughout the course. Warren was
always available for advice, encouragement and guidance,
including daily debriefings and informal evening chats
that really helped us reflect, learn and build confidence.
The whole Oceans 5 team was friendly and supportive, and
I especially appreciated the opportunity afterwards to
team-teach alongside very experienced instructors.
Gili Air was an ideal place to complete the ITC, and
for me, SSI and Oceans 5 were absolutely the right
choice. I'm very grateful for such a valuable learning
experience, the wonderful people I met and the fond
memories I'll take away. I'm also looking forward to
putting my new instructor qualification into practice,
helping students develop their skills and confidence,
and supporting diver training at my dive club back
home in Perth.
I would highly recommend Oceans 5 to anyone considering
where to undertake their Instructor Training Course.”
