IDC PREPARATION

Arrive a day early ( the sooner the better), you will find out that it will save you lots of time and energy for you to participate in the Prep course. You will have an opportunity to meet the Staff, your fellow candidates so that you get to know each other. We want you to relax.

The Prep consists of organizing paperwork, taking a 5-part theory pre-exam which is similar to the IE exam/DM exam. We will help you to remediate your problems. We will also spend some time in the swimming pool and work on demonstration quality of your skills.

Before you arrive at EZ Divers for your IDC

You should have made self-preparations of your own. This will significantly lower the IDC course load and stress level for you. Your IDC will actually be more EZ and enjoyable. If you are well prepared.

Make sure that you organize your paperwork before you arrive! (Candidate Work book)

Please bring the following paperwork for the IDC:

• Documentation of all your certifications.
• Proof of medical examination not older than 12 months.
• Proof of CPR and First Aid not older than 24 months.
• Logbook.

Our IDC Preparation Course ( 1 - 2days )

 

We would like to invite you to our COMPLIMENTARY Prep course.

Candidates taking the PADI Instructor Development Course are expected to have a good knowledge of diving academics and demonstration-quality pool skills. Maybe it has been some time since your Divemaster training or you may have not been active in assisting with classes. Perhaps you are just not entirely confident about your level of expertise. If either of these situations applies in your case, this is why our IDC Preparation Course is a must for all candidates.

This course will alleviate those fears and will thoroughly prepare you to enter the IDC with added confidence in academics and confined water skill demonstrations.

We frequently have IDC candidates who are not comfortable with Physics or the Dive Tables (especially The Wheel) or they are unable to perform pool skills to demonstration quality.

During the IDC Preparation Course we will work closely with you to eliminate your individual difficulties, before the IDC begins. During the IDC you can then concentrate on preparing your IDC assignments, rather than devoting time to reviewing material and skills you should have covered thoroughly in your Divemaster Course.

Tip: It is highly recommended that you purchase a Diving Knowledge Workbook and answer all the questions. This is the best way to prepare for your IE

  PADI Instructor Development Course ( 7 days )

The PADI Instructor Development Course (IDC) is the core of the PADI Instructor training process. The goal of the program is to prepare you to function as an effective PADI Instructor by thoroughly familiarizing you with the PADI system and its entire diver training programs. You will draw upon your current skills and knowledge while learning how to conduct classroom, pool and open water teaching sessions.

While successful completion of the IDC will prepare you for an EZ pass of the Instructor Examination, this is not the focus of the course, we conduct at EZ DIVERS.

Our program is specifically designed to arm you with the skills and knowledge you will need to begin your career as a Scuba Instructor.

You will be at ease when you will teach your first "real" course after the IE.

(Please note that the IDC processing fee is not included in the IDC course fee and must be paid to PADI. Please see our Individual Course Fees page for the current PADI IDC application processing fee. )
