DAN INSTRUCTOR
DAN Instructors are scuba diving educators who want to offer dive safety
programs to their students. To become a DAN Instructor, you must participate in
a DAN Instructor Qualification Course (IQC).
The IQC follows a modular format. There is a Core Module and then a separate
module representing each training program. You can take all nine modules as part
of one course, or just take the Core Module and one course module - whatever you
are interested in teaching. Later, as long as you remain a current and active
DAN Instructor, you can take additional modules without retaking the Core
Module.
