Become a PADI Master Scuba Diver Trainer (MSDT) in San Diego

Take your scuba teaching career to the next level by becoming a PADI Master Scuba Diver Trainer (MSDT). This prestigious rating recognizes Open Water Scuba Instructors who are committed to continuing education and have experience teaching a range of PADI specialties. It's a clear signal to both dive shops and students that you’re a well-rounded, highly capable instructor.

At Ocean Enterprises in San Diego, we help instructors meet the requirements for the MSDT rating by offering specialty instructor training and mentorship opportunities. Whether you’re teaching in Southern California or planning to work abroad, earning your MSDT gives you the professional edge to succeed.

MSDT status not only expands what you’re authorized to teach—it also sets you up for further professional development, like IDC Staff Instructor. Whether you're training locally in San Diego or working toward global dive travel opportunities, this rating makes you more versatile and employable.
