Ocean Divers will supply all air fills for the duration of the IDC, along with any extra tanks as required. For country, interstate or overseas candidates, weight belts can also be provided. These are supplied at no extra charge. Washing, drying and storage facilities are available on site.

It is helpful to carry a spare parts kit for field repairs and a first aid kit for any unexpected emergencies. We have trained equipment technicians on staff to lend assistance should the need arise, as well as qualified first aiders and oxygen providers. An emergency oxygen supply and appropriate means of delivery is available to candidates for the duration of the program. Floats, flags and lines are also supplied.

This course is subject to Ocean Divers’ normal Terms & Conditions. By enrolling in this course, you agree to accept all terms and conditions.

If you like people, have a passion for scuba diving and want an extraordinary life – become a PADI Instructor. Teaching scuba diving allows you to share your love of the aquatic world with others while doing what you enjoy – being in, around and under water. PADI Open Water Scuba Instructors and PADI Assistant Instructors are the most sought-after dive professionals around the world because they’ve completed the program that sets the standard for training dive professionals. You earn a PADI Instructor rating through hard work and commitment, but you’re rewarded with a job that lets you share incredible underwater adventures with others – transforming their lives for the better and enriching yours.

Are you ready to join the ranks of the dedicated professionals who teach the world’s most progressive and popular scuba diver education programs? Then Go PROSM with an Instructor Development Course.

The Instructor Development Course (IDC) is made up of two parts – the Assistant Instructor (AI) course and the Open Water Scuba Instructor (OWSI) program. Most dive professionals complete the entire IDC and go on to attend an Instructor Examination (IE), which is the final step to earn a PADI Instructor certification.

Successfully completing just the AI course results in a PADI Assistant Instructor qualification. When an AI is ready to progress, attending an OWSI program allows entry into an IE to earn a full PADI Instructor rating.

Dive professionals who hold an instructor rating with another diver training organization may be eligible to enroll directly in the OWSI program. This recognizes prior instructor training and provides a path to become a PADI Instructor.

Total investment for the IDC is $2,800.00.

A deposit of $795.00, along with a completed application form is required to secure your position on the program. Balance of fees and all paperwork is due upon commencement of the IDC. Please ensure that you review the candidate checklist on the back of the application form
