Padi IDC Staff Instructor Course

MENTORING NEW INSTRUCTORSBECOME A PADI IDC STAFF INSTRUCTOR

Led by our in-house Course Director James Wilkinson, the PADI IDC Staff Instructor Course takes you into the world of the Instructor Trainer. As well as a chance to train Assistant Instructors many people who take the Staff course find it a very useful, non-pressured refresher of the IDC.

We run a number of IDCs each year in both the UK and in Sharm el-Sheikh therefore there are plenty of chances of working with real instructor candidates.

The duration of the course is either 2-3 days as a stand alone course or around 10 days as a full audit of an IDC.

  • We keep our class sizes small so you feel more comfortable and get the most out of your experience.
  • Everything is explained in simple steps, guided by our experienced instructing team. There are no ‘stupid questions’.
