Ready to take your professional diving career to the ultimate level? Spartan SCUBA & Dive Team is hosting an elite, hybrid-format SDI Course Director course this December. Earning this rating authorizes you to independently conduct the SDI Instructor Development Course (IDC), teach Non-Diving Specialty Instructor courses, and shape the next generation of dive educators.
Why do your Course Director with Spartan SCUBA?

The “Doc” Premium: This program is personally directed by Dr. Eric Strand (“Doc”)—an Instructor Trainer with 30 years of medical expertise, military leadership instruction, public safety diving mastery, and thousands of technical cold-water dives. You are paying for elite mentorship, not a rubber stamp.
The Pacific Northwest Advantage: True leadership is forged in demanding, heavy-exposure environments. By mastering student management and evaluation in the cold waters of the PNW, you prove you can comfortably run an IDC anywhere on the planet.
Flexible Schedule: Complete the vast majority of your core lectures, academic presentations, and standards reviews via interactive online video sessions around your busy schedule.

Event Schedule & Format

December 1–30 (Online Hybrid): Live interactive video sessions covering Methods of Instruction, Risk Management, and the Business of Diving.
Practical Weekend (In-Person): Flawless demonstration-quality skill evaluations, physical stamina watermanship trials, and your final academic presentations conducted on-site at Sunrise Resort on Hood Canal. Please note that your final academic presentation must be delivered in person.

Pricing & Registration
Our tuition is straightforward and all-inclusive of your materials, personalized mentoring, and Sunrise facility fees (assuming booking in dorm with the Spartan Dive Team – private rooming is at extra cost)—leaving only your final HQ registration fee and personal air fills out of pocket.
