This course takes the already certified PADI Divemaster to another level. Our dedicated Coral Point Diving Team will introduce you to the PADI system of diver education.
The PADI IDC Course provides you with the tools to train scuba divers in the classroom, confined water and open water.
Our IDC package comprises of three courses PADI Assistant Instructor Course (AI) & PADI Open Water Scuba Instructor (OWSI) and Emergency First Response Instructor Course (EFRI).If you are already qualified in any of the these courses – no problem we can tailor your instructor training accordingly. During the PADI Instructor Development Course (PADI IDC), you will learn the PADI instructor training system of Education. This is accomplished through presenting Confined Water Presentations, Knowledge Development Presentations and Open Water Presentations. Over a minimum of five days, but usually more like seven or nine, the IDC teaches you to conduct all PADI core courses. You’ll be able to organize and present information, conduct skill development sessions and control open water dives. Basically, you become a better public speaker and get really good at demonstrating skills while watching out for student diver safety.
The PADI Instructor Development Course (PADI IDC) concludes with a two day Instructor Exam (IE). A representative from PADI will evaluate the skills and knowledge you gained from the PADI IDC and self-study E-Learning. PADI IDC candidates will present a teaching presentation in Confined Water, Knowledge Development, and Open Water. Additionally, the PADI IDC Candidates will give a Rescue Demonstration and pass exams in Standards and Dive Theory.
Upon successful completion of these three courses you will be ready for the PADI IE which is a 2 day standardized, objective evaluation conducted by PADI Instructor Examiners from PADI America who fly to Dominican Republic several times a year.
At Coral Point Diving we conduct our IDC courses directly before the PADI IE so you are fully prepared for the evaluation.
