PADI IDC Staff Instructor

Who should take this course?

Just as scuba divers look up to divemasters, instructor candidates really respect IDC Staff Instructors. IDC Staff Instructors assist with instructor training and share their wisdom and experience with new PADI leaders. It’s also a great career move to move up to Master Instructor.
Master Scuba Diver Trainers who are ready to be excellent role models and agree to use the PADI System and components in their entirety may enroll in an IDC Staff Instructor course.
