Unforgettable aquatic adventures for kids – Go underwater and discover the wonder of Snorkel, Scuba, Mermaid, and Freediving Explorer programs
The SSI Classified Diving program has been created to enable persons with disabilities who might not be able to earn full certifications the ability to dive and get certified with different safety parameters. Learn to work with disabled divers.
The March SSI ITC in Kenya gives you the chance to turn your diving passion into a professional career. This March, join Ocean Tribe in Diani Beach and complete your SSI Instructor Training Course in warm, clear ocean water.
If you are ready to go pro, this is the right place to do it.
First, location matters. Diani Beach offers warm water, healthy coral reefs, and year-round diving. Instead of training only in a pool, you teach and develop skills in real ocean conditions. As a result, you graduate with real confidence.
In addition, daily diving improves your buoyancy, positioning, and awareness. You do not just learn standards. You practise them in the environment where you will actually teach.
Meanwhile, marine life adds another level of experience. Turtles, rays, and reef fish are part of your classroom.
Assistant Instructor: 4–8 March
Full ITC: 4–13 March
ITC Only: 9–13 March
Instructor Evaluation: 14–15 March
Specialty Instructor: 17–18 March
Because the schedule is structured in one continuous block, you can move smoothly from Assistant Instructor through to Instructor Evaluation. Therefore, you stay focused and build momentum throughout the program.
The March SSI ITC at Ocean Tribe is designed as a complete professional package.
For example, all core packages include:
• Informal preparation program
• Full SSI Instructor Training Course
• Instructor Evaluation
• SSI Instructor Digital Learning
• Wetnotes and evaluation materials
• Six Instructor Specialties
• No hidden fees
• Pro rates on equipment
• Ocean Tribe T-shirt
• Introduction to sidemount diving
• CV workshop and job support
• Equipment rental
Because everything is clearly outlined, you avoid surprise costs. More importantly, you leave fully prepared to teach.
During the March SSI ITC, you focus on three main areas.
First, you develop strong classroom teaching skills. You learn how to explain clearly, manage questions, and deliver structured sessions. After each presentation, you receive detailed feedback so you can improve quickly.
Next, you refine your in-water demonstrations. You practise slow, clear skills. You improve body position and control. Over time, your movements become precise and easy to follow.
Finally, you teach in the ocean. Here, you manage dive briefings, student positioning, and real-time problem solving. Because you train in open water daily, your confidence grows naturally.
As the course progresses, everything links together. Therefore, by the time you reach the Instructor Evaluation, nothing feels unfamiliar.
The Instructor Evaluation takes place immediately after the ITC. However, it does not feel like a shock. Instead, it feels like the next logical step.
Since you practise exam-style presentations throughout the ITC, you already understand what is expected. Consequently, most candidates feel focused rather than anxious.
Preparation removes pressure.
Before arrival, you complete your SSI Instructor Digital Learning. This covers standards, professional responsibilities, and the business of diving.
In addition, you should refresh dive theory and practise skill demonstrations. The more prepared you are, the smoother the course feels.
Ocean Tribe also offers an informal preparation period before the ITC begins. As a result, you settle in, adjust to the environment, and fine-tune your skills.
Ocean Tribe is an SSI Diamond Instructor Training Centre in Diani Beach.
Importantly, you train in small groups. That means more feedback, more coaching, and more personal attention. Rather than simply passing candidates through, the focus stays on building strong, employable instructors.
Furthermore, career guidance continues after certification. You receive CV support, job advice, and professional mentoring.
The goal is simple. Not just certification. Real instructor readiness.
If you want to expand your training, you can include:
• Divemaster Instructor Seminar
• 2 Night / 3 Day African Safari
• Full essential or elite equipment packages
Because you are already in Kenya, many candidates choose to combine professional development with adventure.
The March SSI ITC is more than a course. It is a career move.

Teach on coral reefs.

If you are serious about becoming a dive instructor, March is the right time to commit.
