❗️Important Notes❗️
The Freediving Instructor Course is not a guaranteed-pass course.
Any assessments that are not successfully completed must be retaken within six months from the final course session. If more than six months have passed, the candidate will be required to repeat all instructor assessments.
If a student voluntarily withdraws from the course, no refund will be provided.
However, if a student becomes medically unfit to participate in diving activities and provides a doctor's certificate confirming this, the remaining training fee will be refunded after deducting costs that have already been incurred.
The Instructor Course fee does not include boat dives during the training period, equipment rental, transportation, accommodation, or any other additional expenses.
After completion of the Instructor Course, the dive center will submit the SSI certification application within two weeks.
If a candidate does not meet the required standards for certification at the end of the course, the Training Instructor will discuss the required additional training, reassessment items, and associated fees with the candidate.
Depending on the candidate's performance, the certification may also be downgraded to Assistant Freediving Instructor, equivalent to a Pool Freediving Instructor.
If the Instructor Course is held at Cetacea Freediving in Hengchun, students will receive special Instructor Course rates for accommodation and equipment rental at the Cetacea center.
(These special rates are only applicable at Cetacea's Hengchun location and do not apply at other locations.)
Cetacea and the course do not include transportation or meals. These expenses must be arranged independently.
