Description

A person who has the title of diving coach, who is entitled to issue and sign a diving certificate at a diving training. One year validity until 31 December.

Obligation

Instructors may be qualified in any Region.
An instructor who travels to a different Region to be qualified, upon qualification must become an instructor member in the Region wherein the instructor resides.
The instructor card and certificate will be sent to the Licensee of the Region where the new instructor resides, who will forward the documentation to the instructor once the instructor becomes a member in that Region.
Once membership dues are paid, the instructor will be granted full instructor privilege at the level qualified for.
Instructors moving from one Region to another Region that are under different Licensees, for a period greater than 90 days, must obtain membership in the new Region in order to be on active teaching status in the Region.
Instructors completing training or crossover courses overseas will be required to demonstrate they are familiar with the environment they will be teaching in. If the instructor qualification was in a similar environment to the one in the native country no evaluation will be made. If the IEC was conducted in an environment differing from the native country an evaluation can be done by reviewing the experience of the instructor in environments similar to the one in the region.
If the new instructor is not familiar with diving or teaching in the type of environment in the licensed territory they may at the discretion of the licensee be required to complete an environmental acquaintance prior to teaching within their chosen country of operation. This may be as simple as a dive log review or a more comprehensive evaluation such an evaluation dive and environmental Presentations or if warranted co-teaching a portion of a course, or an entire course. The exact option will depend upon the background of the new instructor. This process, if mandated by the Licensee, will be under the direction of an IT assigned by the Licensee themselves.
Instructors teaching local residents a qualification course that travel to a different Region for part of the course must notify the Licensee in the different Region that they will be doing training in that Region. Permission is automatic so long as the instructor is not teaching residents of the Region being visited.
Instructors who wish to teach or who have been invited to teach Programs in a Region they do not reside in must.
Request permission of the Licensee of the Region where the course will take place. Failure to do so will result in the qualifications not being processed and internationally sanctioned disciplinary action against the instructor, ranging from probation to suspension dependent on the circumstances.
The Licensee may refuse permission if the activity presents a conflict of interest with other similarly qualified instructors in the Region or if there is no justification for the Programs to be taught.
As general rule, permission will be granted if justified.
Qualifications must be processed in the Region where the training is to be performed.
