INSTRUCTOR DEVELOPMENT
The PADI Instructor Development Course (IDC) is a 10 days program designed to prepare qualified candidates to become PADI Instructors. We believe we offer one of the finest instructor training programs available today. Our IDC provides a professional learning experience in which you will learn how to teach diving utilizing the most successful program in existence. Not only will you learn how to teach in the classroom, pool and open water environments, you will also learn how to effectively use all PADI's teaching aids and support materials.
The philosophy behind our IDC is that it is 'Candidate Centered'.
Sea World Dive Center Instructor Training program is intense, fun, demanding and exciting all at the same time. Candidates have fun; make new friends and share rewarding life experiences while earning some of the most coveted credentials in the dive industry. We are the only Dive Center in the island with 2 PADI Course Director & a PADI Master Instructor with over 20 years of diving experiences. We teaches in English, Korean and Mandarin.
The IDC is divided into two distinct segments. The first segment is the 4 days PADI Assistant Instructor (AI) course. The second portion is the 6 days PADI Open Water Scuba Instructor (OWSI) program. Together the two courses combine to encompass the entire IDC. Both courses must be completed before attending the PADI Instructor Examination (IE) .
Each segment can be scheduled as a stand-alone course or completed all at one time. You have several training options and flexibility for reaching your professional goals depending on your current certification level, experience level, time restraints, etc. Options include:
- For PADI Divemasters - you may choose just to attend the AI course first and later on after gaining more experience go on to complete the OWSI program.
- For PADI Divemasters - you may attend the full IDC and, upon successful completion, go on to the IE (as long as all other IE prerequisites are met).
For PADI Assistant Instructors - you may attend the OWSI program only and, upon successful completion, go on to the IE (as long as all other IE prerequisites are met). Please consult us for advice. Our advice will be based on your attitude, experience, level of dive knowledge, diving ability, overall understanding of the dive market and consumer attitudes, and your ability to grasp new concepts through independent study. Remedial training, additional IDC curriculum presentations, or full IDC with or without the Pre-Study and Preparation Workshop may be advised.
For Scuba Instructors affiliated with other certification organizations you may attend an OWSI program only and, upon successful completion go on to the IE. Please consult us for advice. Our advice will be based on your attitude, experience, level of dive knowledge, diving ability, overall understanding of the dive market and consumer attitudes and your ability to grasp new concepts through independent study. Remedial training, additional IDC curriculum presentations, or full IDC with or without the Pre-Study and Preparation Workshop may be advised.
For Scuba Instructors or dive supervisors affiliated with other certification organizations you may choose to attend the full IDC and, upon successful completion go on to the IE.
The IDC curriculum emphasis is focused on development, not tests or stress. This makes learning easier and more relaxed. Our Instructor Development programs are some of the best you will find anywhere in the world. We realize there is a lot to accomplish in a relatively short time and so give you three half day breaks for a chance to sleep in, enjoy the local scenery of diving or catch up on preparations as the case may be. Thereby making our programs truly candidate centered.
Our Course Directors and IDC Staff are available for questions and assistance when preparing home assignments, presentations and general considerations. This is a unique part of our program as we are here to help you every step of the way.
