英文网页 职位：训练和商业发展经理 PADI等级：课程总监   刘猛博人生中的第一次潜水是在12年前的大堡礁，虽然不是一次非常愉快的体验潜水，但他还是对潜水产生了兴趣。直到2013年通过去塞舌尔工作的机会，他住的地方离当地的PADI潜水中心很近，这才有了他第二次尝试潜水的念头。他在塞舌尔生活了两年半的时间，在此期间，他完成了从开放水域潜水员课程到潜水长课程。从此他对海洋产生了极大的兴趣，让他下定决心变成一名专业的潜水教练。   在结束了塞舌尔的工作以后，他去了泰国的涛岛，完成教练发展课程。紧接着他申请变成名仕潜水员训练官，并在涛岛实习了一个月的时间。后来他就得到了马尔代夫工作的机会，安纳塔拉克哈瓦酒店，一家顶级五星级酒店。在马尔代夫的两年半时间里，虽然更多的是体验潜水的客人，但是他学会了如何提供优质的服务和满足客人的需求。   2018年，在结束了马尔大夫的工作以后，他又回到了涛岛，完成了参谋教练的课程。2019年3月，他又来到了巴厘岛，在巴厘岛其中一间最大的潜店工作直到疫情发生。2020年底，他回到了中国，在此期间，他考取了PADI自由潜教练，并且一直为申请课程总监做准备。与此同时，他也在三亚的一家潜店做相关的管理工作。   2022年5月，他被选中成为课程总监的候选人，并于7月前往泰国普吉岛完成课程总监课程。随后又回到马尔代夫完成了三个月的工作，现在他来到悉尼，成为Abyss第一位中文课程总监，并且是澳洲唯二的中文课程总监之一。   他喜欢和潜水员或者学员分享他的潜水经验和对海洋生物的热情，他也希望让更多的人可以认识潜水，喜欢潜水，甚至变成潜水专业人士从而改变他们的生活。现在，通过他九年的潜水经验，他喜欢为潜水员展示海底世界，分享潜水相关的知识，让大家有更安全更愉悦的潜水体验。很多潜水员或者学员都是通过他的分享或者课程才了解了水下世界的美妙和神奇。他相信这些回忆将会伴随所有潜水员一生。   潜水证书： 课程总监 2022 深潜专长教练训练官 2022 高氧专长教练训练官 2022 紧急供氧专长教练训练官 2022 数码水底摄影时专长教练训练官 2022 水底导航专长教练训练官 2022 夜潜专长教练训练官 2022 搜索与巡回专长教练训练官 2022 侧挂专长教练训练官 2022 沉船专长教练训练官 2022 鲨鱼保育专长教练 2022 打击海洋垃圾专长教练 2022 紧急第一反应教练训练官 2021 教练长 2020 IDC参谋教练 2018 […]
