- Assistant Instructor Course
As an Assistant Instructor (AI), you will be authorized to teach all aspects of skin and scuba diving under the supervision of a NAUI Instructor. This is the best possible way to develop your own instructional skills. The rating can be a step toward full Instructor, or an end in itself. Match your time, talent and interests with the NAUI programs near you, and enjoy the adventure of personal and professional enhancement as a NAUI leader.
As the last step prior to the NAUI Instructor Training Course (ITC), you will learn the basics of education. Other agencies do little more than turn you into a technician; we will help you understand how people learn and the most effective ways to train divers. AI will also test you on fundamental water skills needed to be capable assistants.
After completion of the classroom portion of the AI course, those wishing to become an instructor will need to apprentice in two NAUI Scuba Diver courses before taking the Instructor Training Course.
