Key West Scuba Diving informationwith Crossover Course

Instructor Crossover Course (ICC)

OVERVIEW

The NAUI Instructor Crossover Course (ICC) is designed to train and qualify current non-NAUI recreational scuba instructors to train diving students and register them for NAUI certification. During the course, candidate instructors learn effective methods to teach skin and scuba diving in compliance with NAUI Diving Course Standards.

The ICC may be presented in two phases. If done so, Phase One called an Instructor Crossover Program (ICP), contains all preparatory training except for the final evaluations. During an ICP, candidate practice performances must be evaluated by at least two qualified evaluators, one of whom may be a STW completer and the other an IT or CD. The ICP can be conducted in many formats, ranging in length from a day to an internship over an extended period.

The second or final phase of an ICC so organized is called the IQP, during which a Course Director must be in residence and all final evaluations will be made.

What's not included:
The NAUI Master Scuba Diver Student Education System, NAUI Scuba Diver Instructor Manual, NAUI Scuba Diver Skills Slate and the NAUI Standards and Procedures Kit are required for this course. Additional diving books are also available at the shop in Key West Florida.
