MER PADI Instructor

Let our military veterans know they can use their VA benefits to change or enhance their career. This is a full program, from start to finish. It will get your from becoming a PADI Open Water Diver, PADI Advanced Open Water Diver, EFR / EFR Instructor, PADI Assistant Instructor, PADI Divemaster (Elite course), PADI Instructor Development Course, PADI Instructor Exam (IE), PADI Specialty Courses. PADI Resort Training Course (RTC), and PADI Career Development Course (CDC).
This course is the full complete course. It is a great program if you want to use up those college credits you still have with your GI Bill. Depending on your GI Bill you may also qualify for not just the educational portion but, you may also qualify for the stipend for the housing allowance as well. You would need to contact the VA directly to verify all of your benefits.
It was by sheer luck that I called the VA and found out I had just less than one year left on my benefits and if I didn't use them, I would lose them completely. For me, it was a no brainer to get this course completed.

Welcome! This is an under construction building page. I am currently enrolled in the Professional Association of Dive Instructors, Career Development Course through the VA. I currently hold NO professional certification. I am currently working on my Divemaster certification. It is my intent to provide my current progress and experience through the course and upon completion, be able to provide PADI courses and experiences to educate people who would be interested in taking classes in exploring the world underwater. So please join me in my journey these next fews months and beyond that, once I am PADI Dive Instructor. I would love to provide you the necessary training to explore some of the most exciting sites around the world in a safe and controlled environment.
