At Scuba Junkie we are not only passionate about providing high quality, personalised IDC's that fully prepare you for the Instructor Examination (IE) but also take the time to share with you our commitment to the marine environment. During your time with us you will not only cover all the core requirements of the IDC but will also get to experience some world class diving AND be introduced to our environmental projects - lucky candidates may even get to see baby turtles hatching at our turtle hatchery on Mabul island!! By keeping our IDC class sizes to a maximum of 10, we can give each student the personal attention they need to ensure they are 100% prepared for the IE.
We start each IDC by making sure that you are fully up to date on your divemaster theory, rescue skills and 20 basic skills. Every IDC includes a 2 day preparation period specifically designed to pick up on and remediate any gaps in your knowledge. We can also provide longer preparation periods if required. During the IDC you will split your time between our classroom and our dedicated confined & open water training areas plus you will take the Emergency First Response Instructor Course which is required for your career as a PADI Instructor. Before declaring you ready for the IE, we conduct a full mock 2 day IE so that you know exactly what to expect from the real one!
To enroll in the PADI IDC you must:
Our IDC prep + IDC + EFR Instructor + Speciality Instructor program lasts for 14 days, you will need to allow an additional 2 days to complete your PADI IE.
With a mere 2 min walk from the classroom to the dive sites, Mabul Island provides the perfect learning environment in which to conduct IDCs. Our recommended Best IDC Package includes 13 nights full board accommodation at our beautiful Mabul Beach Resort on Mabul Island. All your meals and day to day needs will be taken care of by our helpful resort staff, leaving you free to focus on your IDC.
