Gratulations to all of you, was a pleasure teaching you.

Here you can see where we did the diving:

Gratulations to Michael #200, and Theis #201.

We had 2 great dives with a nice 8 degree warm water, very good visibility, and the students were very good.

So now I can teach student the correct use of emergency oxygen.

Recent statistics show that in 2007 less than 50% of dive injuries where given oxygen to help recovery. Administering oxygen is a good way to help handle the different sorts of Decompression Illnesses.

Therefore she now has the 150th dive certificate I have issued in my Diving Career

Until now (5th of November) I have issued the following diving certificates:

I have also issued 9 Emergency First Response certificates.

My plan is to become a Padi Master Instructor, I have issued enough certifications, but not of the correct type. At the moment, I need to certify 1 EFR, 4 Divemasters, and 5 Assistant Instructors to be able to apply.

During this period I did do the Padi IDC Staff instructor course. On the 27th of October I pass the course

This was quite an interesting course, during which I followed an Assistant Instructor course, evaluating the students together with the Staff Instructor and Course Director doing the course.

Of course us IDC Staff Instructor students where being evaluated as well, we had to do the 20 skill circuit, with a score of minimum 4 for each skill. We had to do teaching presentation, and confined water presentations as well.

In the standards written exam there was 40 questions, and we had to have at least 80% correct, I had a single error which mean I had 97.5% correct
In the theory exam there was 5 sections of each 20 questions, again we must have at least 80% correct. I had 100% correct in 4 of them, and a single error in the RDP/Wheel exam. I am VERY pleased with my result

I am really looking forward to do my first Assistant instructor course.

Here you can see some pictures of the Staff Instructors candidates and the Assistant Instructors candidates.

One of the students Siri, was so kind to let me use these pictures:

You can see the gallery of the open water trainings here, taken by Alice a divemaster trainee, the quality is not very high due to bad visibility.
