If you are considering becoming a PADI instructor chances are you have already fallen in love with diving and the diver lifestyle and we totally understand after all that is why we became PADI instructors. Here at RDC we train our instructor candidates to not only become the best instructors they can be but to be fully prepared for the life of a PADI professional.
The (IDC) Instructor Development Course consists of two parts:
the Assistant Instructor Course (AI) and
the Open Water Scuba Instructor program (OWSI).
Successfully completing the whole IDC program qualifies you to attend the PADI Instructor Examination (IE).
Additionally, we also offer the Emergency First Responder Instructor course (EFRI) that covers Primary Care, Secondary Care and Care for Children, and it is compulsory for becoming PADI Instructor.
The IDC is great fun as well as a rewarding and unforgettable experience and you will meet people that will likely become lifelong friends.
Attitude & Teamwork are the keys to success druing your PADI Instructor Development Course (IDC)
