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.
