PADI Instructor Developement Course [IDC] on Koh Tao Thailand
At DJL Diving, we've put together a PADI Instructor Package, which includes absolutely everything you need to qualify [and work] as a PADI Open Water Scuba Instructor.
That covers instructor training courses, PADI Materials which you'll need to teach, plus all certification fees. There are no hidden extras.
Here's a list of exactly what's included:
| PADI Instructor Courses |
 PADI IDC Preparation Course |
| PADI Instructor Development Course [IDC] |
| PADI Instructor Examination [IE] |
| Emergency First Response Instructor Course [EFRi] |
| |
| All certification fees |
Lunch is included during each day of your instructor course, plus if you arrive on Koh Tao a little before the IDC starts, you're welcome to take a few 'fun dives' off our dive boat, and familiarize yourself with our diving conditions.
We're happy to help arrange accommodation for the duration of your stay, plus you'll get 17 nights free membership for 'Monsoon Gym' close to the dive shop. |
Here's a detailed description of our PADI Instructor Package:
Introduction
Working as a professional Dive Instructor can be one of the most rewarding and challenging jobs a person can have. In addition to the inherent joys of introducing others to an environment with so many hidden wonders, today’s dive instructors find themselves in an ever-expanding and diversifying market with new opportunities arising almost daily.
The DJL Diving Instructor Development Course (IDC) aims to prepare new instructors to meet and take advantage of those opportunities. The program is conducted by experienced PADI Course Darius Moazzami, who has maintained a 100% pass rate with all the candidates he has trained.
Our IDC follows a proven educational approach which focuses on real-life application of knowledge gained throughout the course. Business principles, marketing strategies and how to increase earnings through Instructor-level continuing education programs, are all addressed and discussed throughout the program.
The Instructor Training
The strength of the DJL Diving IDC lies in the training.
Having instructed on IDC’s for nearly 8 years and seeing nearly a thousand candidates through to the successful completion of the Instructor Exam, Course Director Darius Moazzami, is one of the few CD’s on Koh Tao selected to attend the PADI Course Director Training Course at PADI headquarters in California.
Darius’ adaptive teaching techniques and motivation to help his candidates reach their potential has long been the foundation of his success.
Instructor Training Schedule
The DJL Diving IDC schedule is another of its advantages. Conducted over 14 days and including free lunches at some of the best restaurants on Koh Tao, our program follows one of the most relaxed yet effective training schedules around.
All candidates attending the IDC will begin with a preparation course which will allow us to shore up any lost or unclear Divemaster theory and work on skills training in our on-site confined water training facility.
This will be followed by an 11-day AI/OWSI program which will include one and a half days of EFR Instructor training. Most days are split pretty evenly between water work and classroom time.
Rather than condensing all the info into the minimum possible timsescale, we opt for shorter days [finishing between 4 - 5 pm].
We feel that the shorter days [spread over a longer period] allow for an enhanced retention of the material covered.
The last 2 days before the PADI IE we will conduct a mock IE on our premises. This is just a chance to build confidence and prove your readiness on the days before you progress to the IE.
We guarentee success in the PADI Instructor exam. If you don't pass, we will pay for the repeat examination. This has never been necessary, as none of our candidates have ever failed.
Once you qualify as a PADI Instructor ....
Once you've qualified as a PADI Open Water Scuba Instructor, you have the option to stick around and teach your first few certifications here at DJL Diving.
You'll get the chance to build up teaching experience plus can get certified as a PADI Master Scuba Diver Traininer [MSDT], enabling you to teach specialty courses [e.g. deep, enriched air, navigation etc].
