Cross the line from leading dives to teaching them with the PADI Instructor Development Course at Nusa Penida, qualifying you to certify new divers worldwide. Training candidates here means building your teaching presentations against some of Indonesia's most demanding water, where the drift currents of Toyapakeh and the cold Mola Mola thermoclines of Crystal Bay sharpen your judgement and risk-management skills. You leave ready to sit the Instructor Examination and join the global community of PADI professionals.
The PADI IDC trains and assesses you against PADI standards, then prepares you for the Instructor Examination, conducted independently by a PADI Examiner. On passing the IE you become a teaching member of PADI with a renewable instructor rating, access to professional insurance and the worldwide PADI jobs network.
Teaching workshops run at sheltered Nusa Penida and Lembongan sites like Sampalan, Sental and Toyapakeh, while exposure to Crystal Bay and Manta Point in the calm April-to-November season builds the current and cold-water judgement an instructor needs. The Instructor Examination itself is conducted separately by a PADI Examiner at a designated IE location.
