Make the leap from guiding divers to teaching them with the PADI Instructor Development Course on Ambergris Caye, the spine of the Belize Barrier Reef. Candidates rehearse teaching presentations in the sheltered, clear water inside the reef off San Pedro before sitting the independent Instructor Examination, finishing ready to certify divers of their own across one of the Caribbean's most iconic dive regions.
The PADI IDC trains and assesses you against PADI standards and prepares you for the Instructor Examination, conducted independently by a PADI Examiner. On passing you become a teaching member of PADI with a renewable instructor rating and access to the worldwide PADI jobs network.
Teaching workshops use the calm, clear water inside the Belize Barrier Reef off San Pedro, where light current and good visibility through the April-to-November peak create a forgiving classroom; the Instructor Examination is conducted separately by a PADI Examiner.
