For those guys who want to go even further up the PADI ladder then we can add the following onto internships once you have completed your Master Scuba Diver Trainer rating (contact for details)
IDC Staff Instructors are PADI Instructors who assist the PADI Course Director in conducting the Instructor Development Course (IDC). They can also independently certify PADI Assistant Instructors.
The IDC Staff instructor’s duties on the IDC include:
• Presenting IDC Curriculum presentations under the supervision of a PADI Course Director.
• Grading candidate presentations and providing feedback.
• Grading candidate exams and providing feedback.
• Demonstrating with the Course Director role model presentations both in the water and classroom.
• Providing the candidates with coaching and support during the IDC.
All in all it is a really hands on responsible role and that first step in working in the PADI Instructor Development system.
People often look back to their IDC’s and remember their Staff instructors for the help and support that they gave them on it and are really grateful for this.
Working on IDC’s is very rewarding work especially when you see your candidate successfully graduate from the PADI Instructor Exam (IE) as new Open Water Scuba Instructors and share in their elation.
Interested? Well if you are a PADI Master Scuba Diver Trainer then this is the path to you. If you want to do an internship to get to this level then Contact Us for package details.
There are 2 ways to the IDC Staff Instructor Rating Option A and Option B.
Option A encorporates the IDC Staff Instructor course into the auditing of a full real IDC.
Option B provides simulated IDC conditions with the IDC Staff Instructor Course and is obviously shorter without having to audit the IDC. Candidates who do it this way are encouraged to audit an IDC as soon as possible to gain the most from their training.
