Status of my education

Some people have asked me how far I am in becoming a SSI Dive Con (Dive Master is the Padi equivalent).
Well the course consists of the following items, and I have marked the ones I have done already:

Academics covering 12+ topics: Done I and have passed final exam. (Academics covers e.g. How to lead dives, assisting with student divers in training, Dive theory, Physics, Physiology, Underwater creatures, Equipment, Decompression theory and dive tables, stress handling, and the business of diving)
Swimming skills: Passed (consists of 300 metre swim, 800 meter swim with mask/fins/snorkel swim, 15 minute tread water, 100 metre tired diver tow
Rescue Dive (Recovering unconscious Diver at surface): Missing (but should be passed by the day after tomorrow)
Skill teaching underwater, on surface and equipment setup: Passed (e.g. mask removal, regulator recovery etc etc; around 10+ skills needs to be mastered and capable of teaching)
Mapping : Create a map of a dive site. Missing (maybe do it tomorrow?)
Emergency Action Plan: Missing
Classroom teaching. Missing but will hopefully be done by tomorrow where I have my final teaching session.
And I probably missed a few things in my list :-)
