Earn your first professional rating with the SSI Divemaster programme on Bangaram Island, guiding certified divers across the coral reefs of a secluded Lakshadweep atoll resort. In warm, calm 27-30C water you develop dive-leadership skills, theory and stamina through a flexible, experience-based internship. You complete this scuba diving dive course with the internationally recognised SSI Divemaster certification.
SSI Divemaster is the entry professional rating, earned through experience-based training and an authorised SSI Training Centre. It uses the SSI digital learning system and qualifies you to guide certified divers and assist instructors before progressing to instructor ratings.
Leadership practice happens on Bangaram's lagoon and outer reefs, with manta rays, reef sharks, turtles and pelagic visitors making real dives ideal for guiding experience. The calm, clear October-to-May season is the prime training window.
