PADI Pro - IDC Instructor Development Course


 
The PADI Instructor Development Course (IDC) is a 7/8-day class designed to prepare qualified candidates to become PADI Instructors.

The IDC is divided into two distinct segments. The first segment is the 3-day PADI ASSISTANT INSTRUCTOR course. The second portion is the 5-day PADI Open Water Scuba Instructor (OWSI)course. Together the two courses combine to encompass the entire IDC. Both courses must be completed before attending the PADI Instructor Examination (IE).

 

Each segment can be scheduled as a stand-alone course or completed all at one time.

The IDC curriculum emphasis is focused on development, not tests or stress. This makes learning easier and more relaxed.
