Independent Training Standards Practice Exam – SSI® Standards Reference

Preparing for an instructor-level standards assessment requires a strong understanding of programme prerequisites, active-status requirements, supervision, safety and administrative procedures.

This independent online practice package helps instructor candidates practise locating, interpreting and applying standards relevant to the SSI® training system. It focuses on standards, systems and procedures rather than diving theory.

The package contains multiple-choice practice exams, each comprising 50 original questions. An 80% score is used as the completion target for each practice exam. This is a Dive Business Manager study benchmark and does not represent an official SSI examination result.

Topics Covered

• General training standards: Active-status requirements, professional-to-student ratios, age requirements and depth limitations.

• Core and specialty programmes: Prerequisites, supervision and relevant requirements for selected recreational programmes.

• Professional development: Requirements and administrative considerations relevant to selected leadership and professional programmes.

• Risk management and quality assurance: Documentation, medical-clearance procedures, incident reporting and quality-assurance principles.

Questions and explanations are designed to help learners identify knowledge gaps and become more confident using official standards materials. Learners must always consult the latest official SSI Training Standards, updates and applicable regional requirements.
