Continuing Education - Indonesia IDC in the Gili Islands

Our PADI Instructor Development Course (IDC) is run at Trawangan Dive, Gili Trawangan. The course will prepare you to become a fully qualified PADI Scuba Diving Instructor. Our PADI Course Director, Holly will not only teach you the entire PADI IDC syllabus, but will be able to teach you about what to expect when entering the industry for the first time. Holly has been working with recreational scuba training for over 10 years and has been diving for over 15 years. She can explain the expectations of employers around the world and conversely, what to expect from potential employers.

Of course continuing your education is also a good idea, and this can be dependent on where you wish to teach and of course you’re particular diving interests. With the MSDT preparation course you will gain 5 specialties in your chosen fields and once you have certified 25 students you will be eligible to apply for MSDT. It is often the case that employers will require a prospective employee to have the MSDT rating. The MSDT will give you a slight edge over other prospective candidates and also show your commitment to the PADI Education system.  Of course it also means that you are able to teach a wider range of PADI programs.

Another continuing education program is the PADI Staff Instructor Course. The PADI Staff Instructor Rating means that you are able to teach Assistant Instructor Courses as well as assist on all portions of the Instructor Development Course (IDC). It is also a prerequisite for the Master Instructor Rating. The Master Instructor Rating is often a requirement when dive centers are employing for management positions.

Of course sometimes you may only wish to teach one or two specialty courses, such as wreck and nitrox, which can often be the case if you are intending on working in an area where there are shallow wrecks.
