PADI e-Learning Instructor Development Course (IDC) Option
Starting Jan 1st, 2010 PADI has started an exciting option for Instructor Candidates participating in the IDC. Once you are a Divemaster you can log onto the PADI website and begin your IDC right away by signing up for e-Learning. e-Learning lets you complete a small portion of the IDC online through the site. By taking this option, you can opt out of these presentations during the IDC.
Important note: Please remember this is completely OPTIONAL and does not change our price on the IDC tuition or any other parts of any packages. This option is for you if you just want to get a head start of the IDC.
PADI Instructor Examination (IE)
PADI Headquarters holds this 2-day evaluation/examination to test preparedness of instructor candidates. Successfully completing an IDC is a prerequisite to attending. We will give you the IE options during the IDC Course. Upon successful completion of the IE you will receive a diploma.
