Hello @Mega Shah @Bilkiss Roze @Sinjini Chanda and @Patricia Sy-Santos please go ahead and introduce yourself :) Tell us a bit about yourself. Where are you based, what's your favourite dive location, and where are you at your diving journey? Happy to have you :D

In 2 days we are starting our Instructor Development Course, and I'm very excited to see you @Bilkiss Roze and @Ann Hinterscheid tomorrow in Lembongan. I came just yesterday and, of course, had to go on a dive. The current was pumping, it was sooo fishy, and the vis is 30m+ ! Perfect conditions to start the course ;)

I hope you're all having a fantastic start to the week. Check out our Job Opportunities Board, where I'll be regularly sharing interesting positions from around the world for Divemasters and Instructors. I'll also be posting marine conservation roles, research projects, liveaboard positions, and expedition opportunities, so you can find everything in one place. If you're currently looking for work, don't forget to watch the Dive Resume Class, where I cover how to create a professional resume that stands out to employers. And if you'd like some extra guidance, just reach out. I'm happy to help review your resume or provide additional coaching to help you land your next diving opportunity.

Hey everyone! I’m so excited to have you here in this community and to share this space with fellow dive professionals. Welcome! After joining, please introduce yourself. Tell us: - where you’re from - your dive level - bucket‑list site or courses you still dream about. - and what brought you here Because diving already has enough macho BS and gatekeeping sometimes, and I really want this space to feel different. I want you to feel safe asking “stupid” questions here because, honestly, those are usually the most important questions. Inside this community, we’ll talk about: - Becoming a dive professional - IDC prep - Dive Theory Made Simple - ocean lifestyle realities - social media and personal branding - confidence and mindset - building a career around passion without completely burning yourself out And if you’re still sitting there wondering whether this is the right space for you… I don't have a straight answer for you soooo.... You just need to try. Welcome to the community. I’m excited to build this with YOU.

Welcome @Christopher Simmonds glad you joined. Tell us all a bit about yourself. I’ve met Chris a while ago (time flies btw. 🫣) now he is getting ready to start the pro path! Suowr happy we got connected again 🙂Woop woop!
