Changes to the Padi Divemaster Course Prerequisites:

The Deep Diver and Search and Recovery speciality ratings are recommended, candidates may also demonstrate the skills related to these courses as part of the Practical Application Skills section (described above).

PADI Divemasters Course Candidates must have 40 logged dives to begin the program (it was 20 dives before). 60 logged dive to complete the course. also a padi divemaster application fee 2015 is to be paid directly.

Development & Exam Changes:

Divemaster eLearning – an alternative to using the PADI Divemaster manual and DVD. The on-line option replaces all but one of the classroom presentations. The exam must be proctored by an instructor. Unlike the other eLearning courses, the DM exam is not included in the online program.

A revised PADI Divemaster Manual and DVD is also available for those who prefer traditional study tools.

The Padi Divemaster exam now emphasizes the supervisory and leadership aspects of dive mastering. The revised padi divemaster exam is written in more familiar terminology to more accurately assess candidate comprehension of the knowledge development topics – including dive theory. This will allow you to self study more and understand the padi divemaster course better.

The dive theory knowledge requirement for Divemaster is now an intermediate step between what’s required for the PADI Rescue Diver rating and Assistant Instructor or Instructor certification.

A DM candidate may “test out” of the dive theory exam questions (roughly half of the exam) by completing Padi Dive Master Theory Online (around $100).
