Sunset Divers is excited to offer the opportunity of a Divemaster Internship to enthusiastic, fit, hardworking divers over the age of 18 who want to gain dive industry experience and earn their first level of professional dive certification: PADI Divemaster. Anyone looking to start the Divemaster Internship must meet the following minimum requirements: PADI Rescue Diver certification, a First Aid Certificate with CPR within the last 2 years, a medical statement signed by a physician within the last 12 months, and at least 40 logged dives.
Applicants must also complete the Divemaster and Dive Theory eLearning courses online through the PADI website. During eLearning, you will complete eight knowledge development sections using a web-based program that allows you to learn at your own pace. You will also have access to an online version of the Divemaster manual for reference during and after the course. Payment for the Divemaster and Dive Theory eLearning courses is made directly to PADI upon registration.
We recommend a minimum of one month to a maximum of three months to complete the internship. The longer you stay, the more extensive your work experience and the more skills you gain. You will be expected to treat the internship as you would a real job and be available to work 7:00 am to 5:00 pm daily, with days off randomly assigned.
The PADI Divemaster course in Grand Cayman with Sunset Divers costs $1,200. This excludes the additional costs of application fees to PADI and the purchase of the Divemaster Crew Pack. For further Internship details regarding accommodation, immigration, and staying in Grand Cayman for an extended period, please contact us.
For visiting dive instructors who wish to train students at Sunset House (whether it’s referral dives or continuing education), it’s important to know our policy. All instructors must have “active” teaching status and we require a copy of professional diving liability insurance with Sunset House/Sunset Divers named on the additionally insured section. Without this, training cannot be conducted by anyone other than a Sunset Divers instructor.
All applicants must fill out our Diver Medical Participant Questionnaire before booking. Please don’t hesitate to get in touch if you have any pre-booking questions.
