A Divemaster (DM) is a diving qualification used throughout most of the world in recreational scuba diving for a diver who has overall responsibility for a group of divers. As well as being a generic term, Divemaster also refers to the lowest professional rating of many training agencies, such as PADI, SSI, SDI, NASE, except NAUI, which rates a NAUI Divemaster just under an Instructor but above an Assistant Instructor. The BSAC recognizes several agencies' Divemaster certificates as equivalent to BSAC Dive Leader, but not to BSAC Advanced Diver. The converse may not be true. The certification is a pre-requisite for becoming an instructor in recreational diving with most agencies except NAUI, where it is an optional step to Instructor,〔http://naui.org/leadership_courses_instructor.aspx〕 because of the different position of the NAUI Divemaster in the NAUI hierarchy. The Divemaster level equals to the international Standard ISO 24801-3.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Competencies of a recreational scuba diver at level 3 "Dive Leader" (ISO 24801-3) )〕 ==Role== The role of a Divemaster can be varied, but will predominantly encompass the following roles: * Organizing, conducting and supervising recreational diving activities (but not training), both shore and boat based. * Assisting instructors in conducting training programs and activities for certified divers. * Generally supervising non-training related diving activities by planning, organizing and directing dives. * *assessing the hazards of a dive site and informing the divers of the hazards, * *briefing divers on the layout and points of interest of a dive site, * *suggesting routes for a dive at a specific site for autonomous divers, * *checking divers into and out of the water from a boat or shore entry point, * *leading a group of divers in the water as a tour guide. * Within the limits of some agencies, Divemasters may: * * act as instructional assistants to instructors. * * supervise participants in experience programs for uncertified divers. * * teach and certifying skin divers and snorkellers. * * conduct scuba review programs for certified divers. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Divemaster」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
