The dive industry is like any other in terms of competitiveness for
employment and newly qualified Instructors often find the challenge
after passing their Instructor Examination is in securing suitable
employment. At Utila Dive Centre our staff, with their extensive
network of contacts in the region and worldwide, will do their best to

facilitate your chances of gaining employment as a PADI Instructor, you
can give yourself the best possible head start by enrolling in our
‘Premium Pro Plus’ program. Our ‘Premium Pro Plus’ program includes
the PADI Instructor Development Course, Emergency First Response
Instructor and Master Scuba Diver Trainer preparation program.
Our ‘Premium Pro Plus’ program will train you beyond a regular PADI
‘Open Water Scuba Instructor’ and after the IDC is completed and the
examinations passed we will train you as an ‘Emergency First Response’
Instructor and a ‘Master Scuba Diver Trainer’ and allow you to intern
with our full time Instructors at the Utila Dive Centre and Cross Creek
Dive Centre on Utila, so what we taught you during the IDC you will get
to put into practice under the watchful eyes of our seasoned
professional staff.
The Emergency First Response Instructor course takes 1 ½ days and
trains you to become a competent 1st Aid/CPR Instructor with specific
skills that focus on ‘Care for Children’. The EFR Instructor
rating is essential in order for you to certify PADI Rescue Divers, as
prior to Module 2 of the Rescue course all candidates have to have
completed a sanctioned program in 1st Aid/CPR within the last 24
months. This training will also benefit you outside of the dive
industry and you can offer formal 1st Aid/CPR training to family,
friends and also in the UK, USA and Australia the EFR program can be
used to meet 1st Aid in the workplace requirements.
The ‘Emergency First Response’ Instructor course will be held
immediately after the PADI Instructor Examinations (well we give you 1
day to recover form Utila’s infamous IE party), then we will start with
the MSDT program, this will train you in 5 PADI Specialty Instructor
ratings and no other facility or Course Director in Central America can
offer such an extensive range of continuing education programs, choose

We can also include DAN O2 Instructor in our MSDT program. After
the specialty Instructor training has been completed we have an
optional internship (highly recommended) that allows you to assist our
qualified and experienced Instructors on their PADI courses and you get
the chance to take the ‘micro teaching’ techniques that we taught you
during the IDC and apply to actual courses and gain real world
experience. The internship will allow you to assist on at least 4
PADI courses from Open Water to Rescue and gain invaluable real world
experience and organizational and logistical skills, by the end of our
internship you will have issued 25 PADI certifications and can apply
