Crossover to RAID

Transitioning your active instructor credentials to the RAID system is streamlined with the RAID Instructor Crossover program at FSDivecoach. This comprehensive course focuses on familiarizing you with RAID's distinct training methodology, educational materials, and online platform, ensuring a smooth integration of your existing expertise. The program doesn't re-teach fundamental diving skills but emphasizes understanding and applying RAID's specific standards and procedures for core courses like Open Water 20, Explorer 30, Advanced 35, Master Rescue, Nitrox, and Deep 40.

The crossover is structured over three intensive days, beginning with an online theory session followed by two in-person days dedicated to practical workshops and final evaluations. Key components include a deep dive into RAID's online system and risk management protocols, alongside a thorough practical water skills assessment. This ensures you are fully equipped to teach RAID courses effectively from day one.

To enroll, you must be at least 18 years old and hold a current Medical Certificate. Active status OWSI (or equivalent) from a recognized agency is required, along with current Nitrox and Deep 40 Instructor certifications; these can be updated during the crossover if needed. Valid accident and liability insurance, plus current First Aid and Oxygen Administration certifications, are mandatory prerequisites for participation.

Upon successful completion of this 399 EUR + VAT program, you will be certified as a DIVE RAID Instructor, retaining your current level and specialties. While advanced specialty and technical diving courses require separate crossovers, this program equips you to confidently teach RAID's foundational and intermediate offerings. FSDivecoach, with its Google rating of 4.9, offers this pathway to expand your teaching capabilities within a globally recognized agency.
