5 Reasons to Become a PADI Pro on Koh Tao after Covid
- Koh Tao is open and best of all, it has been 100% Covid free!!!
Not a single case. And with our gallant, hard working local health team and voluntary rescue team, our screening process for arrivals to the island has really worked. This assures your health and well being once you arrive for your long-awaited diving holiday or long term stay here.
- You can prepare from home.
Even if your travel plans are on hold, there are plenty of ways you can prepare yourself for your future diving course. Since we announced how easy it is to take the knowledge development part of your course online, we have had more enquiries than we ever imagined. We are offering PADI eLearning for all PADI dive courses, from complete beginner up to Instructor. Although there is uncertainty as to when oversees guests will be returning to Koh Tao, we are expecting most of those who are able to come, to have already completed their classroom work, and will therefore be ready to dive right in!! Now that we’re all online experts, we believe this is the future of how our PADI courses will run moving forward.
- You can attend free live online teaching presentations.
Our PADI Course Directors are excited to offer live presentations on dive theory, IDC workshops, career opportunities and general face to face question and answer sessions for anyone interested in a future career in the dive industry. We have already been running these presentations and have had participants listening in from all over the world. It’s a great way to get to know each other before we meet in person on the beach, with a cocktail!
- There’s no time limit on your eLearning
If you decide to start your PADI course using eLearning today, there is no limit in how long it takes or when you will be able to complete your course underwater. To keep your eLearning current and your knowledge fresh, even if it has been a while since completion, we can refresh your theory online to get you ready for your arrival. So no excuses – start immediately!
- The need or want for an alternate plan.
Finally, and probably most relevant to us all, with life’s uncertainties at the moment it may be time to think about changing plan A to plan B! A PADI Divemaster or Instructor rating can compliment your current working situation through part time work or, become a whole new business and lifestyle.
So now is the time to begin your new future. At Ban’s Diving Resort we have always been passionate about diving and teaching and this will never change. Our professional development programmes are world renowned and will continue because of our progressive approach to teaching, even during these changing times. By adapting our already successful IDC and Divemaster programmes to now included PADI’s eLearning and live online presentations, Ban’s will remain one of the highest quality Dive Centres in the world – and we invite you to join us!
