Enroll in our "Extended" 4-day IDC preparatory program - it's FREE!

Prior to your PADI Instructor Development Course (IDC) program, we offer a 4-day complimentary PADI Instructor Development Course (IDC) preparatory program. This valuable program is designed to help you refresh your dive theory and sharpen your demonstration quality and rescue skills. This is a great way to prepare yourself for the upcoming PADI Instructor Development Course (IDC) program and get you into the learning mode.

This program also gives you the opportunity to meet with other fellow candidates, your PADI Course Director and PADI IDC Staff Instructor even before your PADI Instructor Development Course (IDC) begins. You will also have the chance to familiarize yourself to our Instructor training center and the local diving environment.

Dive theory (Physics, Physiology, RDP, Equipment and Skills & Environment)

The 60 questions dive theory exam in the PADI IE is based on what you have learned during your PADI Divemaster course, there is no surprise and there is nothing new. What you need to do is just to review them again to make sure that you are not forgetting anything.
So, please…

• Practice answering questions using PADI Diving Knowledge Workbook
  
  
• Review dive theory using PADI Divemaster section in your PADI Instructor Manual
  
  
• Review details using PADI Encyclopedia of Recreational Diving – if needed
  
  
• Answer all dive theory questions of the Divemaster final exam at least two times
  
  
• Answer all dive theory questions of the study tools section in your Instructor candidate workbook
  
  
• Be very familiar with using the new eRDPML and Table – especially in finding minimum surface interval time
  
  
• Ask other Instructors if you need assistance

Demonstration quality skills for PADI Open Watr Diver and PADI Continuing Education courses

Naturally as a PADI Scuba Instructor your demonstration quality skills must be up to standard so that it will be easy for your student divers to copy and learn. Whenever you have the chance, please practice all the skills from the PADI Open Water Diver course.

We will also review demonstration techniques for teaching skills from PADI Adventures in Diving programs as well as PADI Rescue Diver course.

Remember to practice performing it correctly, slowly and to exaggerate your movements to show details of skills.

Whenever possible, assist an Instructor conducting PADI courses as many times as you can!
