New PADI Open Water Course Work Shop at dive resort Oceans 5 Gili Islands

PADI unveiled the latest evolution of their popular PADI Open Water Diver course at the 2013 DEMA Show. The revisions include changes to knowledge development, confined water and open water training, as well as new media training materials such as the highly anticipated PADI Open Water Diver Touch, a tablet app. The PADI Open Water course was built on a solid instructional foundation, and it is probably the most popular global entry-level diving course. However content updates were due, as well as opportunities for superior student-centered learning and confidence-building through refinements to in-water training. The revisions grew from comments and suggestions gathered from the entire PADI family, from the top five percent of PADI Members internationally (those who certify the most divers), from those conducting beta trials, from evaluation of diver incident reports, and from 13,700 surveys of new Open Water Divers. Changes to the course itself, the revised course introduces revolutionary student training materials, specifically the Open Water Diver Touch. The Touch integrates the manual text, learning objectives, video clips, and progressive self quizzes into an interactive learning experience. In addition, the new PADI Skill Practice and Dive Planning Slate provides PADI Instructors a new way to assess student confidence. The slate also guides students in dive planning. "The PADI organization is dedicated to teaching diving in ways that are effective, engaging, and enjoyable," says Drew Richardson, CEO and President of PADI Worldwide. "The revised Open Water Diver course revision applied instructional design, research and experience, along with new state-of-the-art media, keeping PADI Members on the leading edge of diver training." Oceans 5 Dive Resort, a PADI Career Development Center, located on the Gili Islands, is organizing a free confined open water workshop. During this workshop PADI Course Director will explain the changes and shows everyone who is interested in his ideas how to demonstrate the skills. All instructors and divemasters welcome!

Understanding Reverse Diving Profiles

Reverse Diving Profiles In the world of scuba diving, safety is paramount. Every diver is trained to follow certain protocols and guidelines to minimize risks and ensure enjoyable experiences beneath the waves. One such guideline that has sparked debate and discussion over the years is the concept of reverse diving profiles. Reverse Diving Profiles Reevaluating Traditional Wisdom Traditionally, divers have been advised to start their dives deep and gradually ascend, a practice known as a forward profile. This approach is based on the principles of decompression theory and aims to reduce the likelihood of decompression sickness (DCS) by allowing the body to off-gas nitrogen slowly as the diver ascends. Insights from Research and Workshops However, with the advent of dive computers and advancements in dive research, the once strict adherence to forward profiles has come under scrutiny. Contrary to the expectations of many, data has emerged showing that divers engaging in reverse profiles

Each year we see a growth in the amount of happy new dive instructors. Being a PADI Course Director has its challenges. Next to evaluating, explaining different ways to organize courses, transferring knowledge and making candidates understand the importance of standards there is a big psychological aspect that can be quite draining. As a Course Director you are affected by the disappointments and the success of all the candidates, making it an emotional ride from beginning to end.
