Instructor Development Course (IDC)
The PADI Instructor Development Course (IDC) is the heart of the PADI Instructor-training. The IDC can be done in two steps (AI course & OWSI program) or be completed in one go (IDC).
During the IDC you will be trained how to use the PADI system in confined water (pool), open water and in the class room.
The IDC attaches great interest to total development. Learning from mistakes is part of the development process. Although there are clearly defined performance requirements for the successful pass there are no time limits.
Under the guidance of our Course Director you can progress your training step by step. The main objective is to do the IDC in a stress free and relaxed atmosphere and surroundings. This makes our IDC to a challenging and enjoyable learning experience. The final assessment of your knowledge and skills will be done later on during the PADI Instructor Examination (IE).
Our IDC is scheduled in a way that there will be a day off in between. On this day off the participants have the chance to become Emergency First Response Instructor (EFRI).
Instructor Development Courses & Instructor Examination (IDC& IE) take place in February, April/ May, September and November at Happy Divers & IDC College`s premises. |
