That's what the Teaching Assistant specialty is for. DM is a leadership certification.Juls64:Why do you all assume this kid will work on a boat leading divers? Maybe he will start off helping at a pool with confined water divers. Don't you think an 18 year old kid with 60 dives could do a good job helping students on their first day of class assemble their gear the correct way? Don't you think they could help people get weighted properly and assure all the gear was at the pool and in the correct sizes? Don't you think he or she could bring some knowledge and enthusiasm to the class? I sure do. They are not teaching the class, they are an assistant. Divemasters do lots of different things, they are not all out in 100 feet of water performing heroic rescues.
Why does everything have to be so overblown and dramatic here?
